1765. 


iTIarcli  8. — Stamp  act  passed,  which  de- 
clared that  no  legal  instrument  of  writing 
should  be  valid  unless  it  bore  a British  stamp. 
The  feelings  of  the  people  were  so  intense 
against  this  act,  that  in  several  cities  mobs  and 
violence  ensued.  The  stamps  were  seized  and 
burned,  and  the  distributors,  who  were  ap- 
pointed by  the  Crown  to  sell  them,  were  in- 
sulted and  despised  on  the  street,  and,  when 
the  law  was  to  take  effect,  there  were  no  offi- 
cials with  courage  enough  to  enforce  it. 

1760. 

Iflarcli  18. — Stamp  act  repealed.  In 
London  this  was  an  occasion  of  great  rejoicing; 
and  in  America  bonfires  and  illuminations  at- 
tested the  feelings  of  the  masses  of  the  peo- 
ple. 

June. — Mutiny  act,  British  troops  sent 
to  America,  and  an  act  passed  by  Parliament 
providing  for  their  partial  subsistence  on  the 
colonies.  The  appearance  of  these  troops  in 
New  York,  and  the  order  to  feed  and  shelter 
them,  occasioned  violent  outbreaks  of  the  peo- 
ple in  that  city,  and  burning  indignation  all 
over  the  land. 


1767. 


June  39. — A tax  imposed  upon  tea,  glass, 
paper,  painters’  colors,  etc.,  and  a bill  passed 
forbidding  the  New  York  Assembly  to  legislate 
until  it  should  comply  with  the  mutiny  act  of 
1766.  The  people  boldly  resisted  these  acts  of 
oppression.  Circulars  were  issued  to  the  As- 
semblies from  Massachusetts  asking  their  co- 
operation in  obtaining  a redress  of  grievances. 
The  Governor  of  Massachusetts,  in  the  King’s 
name,  was  instructed  to  command  the  Assem- 
bly to  rescind  its  actions,  but  in  June,  1768,  it 
unanimously  voted  not  to  rescind. 


1768. 


Juii.  30. — Petition  of  the  ^Massachusetts 
Assembly  to  the  King  of  England,  against

Hay  . — Commissioners  of  Customs,  to  col- 
lect duties,  arrive  in  Boston.  They  are  re- 
garded with  much  contempt,  and  it  was  diffi- 
cult to  restrain  the  excitable  portion  of  the 
population  from  committing  personal  violence. 

•fiiiie. — Arrival  of  sloop  Liberty,  at  Bos- 
ton, belonging  to  John  Hancock  (one  of  the 
signers  of  the  Declaration  of  Independence), 
with  a cargo  of  Madeira  wine.  The  Commis- 
sioners demanded  duties.  It  was  refused,  and 
they  seized  the  vessel.  The  news  spread  over 
Boston,  and  the  people  resolved  on  resistance. 
The  Commissioners  were  assailed  by  a mob, 
their  houses  damaged;  and  they  were  obliged 
to  seek  safety  in  Castle  William,  a small  for- 
tress about  3 miles  S.  E.  from  Boston.

Harcli  5. — Boston  Massacre.  A rope- 
maker  quarreled  with  a soldier  ( March  2 ),  and 
struck  him.  From  this  a fight  ensued  between 
several  soldiers  and  rope-makers,  in  which  the 
latter  were  beaten.  A few  evenings  after- 
ward (March  5),  about  700  excited  inhabitants 
assembled  in  the  streets  for  the  purpose  of  at- 
tacking the  soldiers.  A sentinel  was  attacked 
near  the  Custom  House,  when  Captain  Preston, 
commander  of  the  guard,  went  to  his  rescue, 
with  eight  armed  men.  Irritated  and  assailed 
by  the  mob,  the  soldiers  fired  upon  the  citizens, 
killed  three  and  dangerousl}'  \\ounded  five. 
The  mob  instantly  retreated,  when  ali  the  beMs 
j of  the  city  rang  an  alarm,  and  in  less  than  an 
I hour  several  thousand  exasperated  citizens 
I w^ere  on  the  streets.  Gov.  Hutchinson  assured 
i the  people  that  justice  W'ould  be  done  in  the 
j morning,  and  thus  prevented  further  blood- 
I shed.  Capt.  Preston  and  six  of  his  men  were 
j tried  and  acquitted  by  a Boston  Jury.  Two

until  she  grounded  on  a low  sandy  point;  and

Pitcairn,  in  command  of  800  British  troops, 
was  sent  by  Gen.  Gage  to  destroy  some  ammu- 
nition and  stores  at  Concord,  but  when  he 
reached  Lexington,  a few  miles  from  Concord, 
he  was  met  by  eighty  determined  minute  men. 
Pitcairn  rode  forth  and  shouted  : “Disperse  ! 
disperse,  you  rebels  ! Down  with  your  arms 
and  disperse  !”  They  refused  to  obey,  and  he 
ordered  his  men  to  fire,  killing  eight  citizens 
and  wounding  several.  This  was  the  first 
blood  of  the  Revolution.  The  British  then 
pushed  on  and  destroyed  the  stores  at  Concord; 
but  they  were  so  harrassed  and  annoyed  by 
the  minute  men  on  their  way  that  by  the  time 
they  returned  back  to  Bunker  Hill  they  had 
lost  in  killed  and  wounded  273  men.

way  to  the  commanders  quarters,  in  a voice  of 
thunder  ordered  him  to  surrender.  “By  whose 
authority?”  exclaimed  the  officer.  “In  the 
name  of  the  great  Jehovah  and  the  Continen- 
tal Congress  !”  shouted  Allen.  No  resistance 
was  attempted.  Large  stores  o f cannon  and

ammunition  were  captured  by  the  Americans, 
without  the  loss  of  a single  man. 

Nlay. — First  Declaration  of  Independence. 
The  people  of  North  Carolina  assembled  in 
convention  at  Charlotte,  and  by  a series  of  re- 
solutions absolved  their  allegiance  from  the 
British  Crown,  organized  a local  government 
and  made  provisions  for  military  defense,  vir- 
tually declaring  themselves  free  and  independ- 
ent. This  declaration  of  independence  was 
made  about  13  months  previous  to  the  general 
declaration  made  by  the  Continental  Congress. 

•Fitne  15. — George  Washington  appointed 
Commander-in-Chief  of  the  Continental  army, 
and  took  personal  command  at  Cambridge, 
Mass.,  on  the  3d  of  July. 

•Tune  17. — Battle  of  Bunker  Hill.  Gen- 
eral Howe  and  Bigot,  in  command  of  3,000  Bri- 
tish troops,  assisted  by  a heavy  fire  from  ships 
of  war,  and  a battery  on  Copp’s  Hill,  attacked 
the  redoubt  at  the  foot  of  Breed’s  Hill,  where 
lay  1,500  Americans  awaiting  their  approach. 
Gen.  Prescott  ordered  his  men  to  aim  at  the 
waistband  of  the  British  and  to  pick  off  their 
officers,  whose  fine  clothes  would  distinguish 
them;  and  when  the  British  column  was  within 
ten  rods  of  the  redoubt  he  shouted  FIRE  ! The 
British  were  repulsed  and  fell  back  in  confu- 
sion, but  were  soon  rallied  for  a second  attack, 
and  were  again  repulsed  and  scattered  in  all 
directions.  Howe  now  was  reinforced  by  Gen. 
Clinton,  the  fugitives  rallied  and  they  rushed 
up  to  the  redoubt  in  the  face  of  a galling  fire. 
For  ten  minutes  the  battle  raged  fearfully, 
when  the  ammunition  of  the  Americans  be- 
came exhausted  and  the  firing  ceased.  The 
British  then  scaled  the  bank  and  compelled 
the  Americans  to  retreat,  while  they  fought 
fearfully  with  clubbed  muskets.  The  British 
took  possession  of  Bunker  Hill  and  fortified  it, 
but  withal  could  claim  no  great  victory.  The 
American  loss  from  killed,  w'ounded,  and  pris- 
oners was  about  450  men;  while  the  loss  of  the 
British  from  the  same  cause  w'as  about  1,100. 
This  was  the  first  real  battle  of  the  Revolution 
and  lasted  about  two  hours. 

June  17. — The  first  man  killed  at  the 
battle  of  Bunker  Hill  was  named  Pollard,  from 
Billerica.  He  was  struck  by  a cannon  ball 
from  the  battle  ship  Somerset. 

Sept.  25. — Colonel  Ethan  Allen,  with  80 
men,  attacked  the  British  garrison  at  NIontreal, 
under  Gen.  Prescott.  Allen  was  defeated,  and 
he  was  made  prisoner  and  sent  to  England  in 
irons. 

13. — Montreal  surrendered  to  the 
Americans  under  Gen.  NIontgomery. 

I>ec.  31. — Americans  assault  Quebec  and 
are  repulsed.  Gen.  Montgomery  was  killed, 
and  Colonel  Arnold  was  wounded.  The  com- 
mand then  devolved  upon  Capt.  Morgan,  whose 
expert  riflemen,  with  Lamb’s  artillery,  forced 
their  way  into  the  lower  town:  but,  after  sever- 
al hours’  contest,  he  was  obliged  to  surrender. 

Peyton  Randolph,  first  President  of  Congress, 
died,  aged  52. 

The  first  line  of  post-offices  established;'  Dr. 
Franklin  appointed  postmaster. 

Bills  of  credit,  known  as  Continental  money, 
issued  by  Congress. 

Kentucky  first  settled  by  whites,  near  Lexing- 
ton. 

During  this  year  Continental  money  depre- 
ciated so  much  that  a hundred  paper  dollars 
were  hardly  equivalent  to  one  dollar  in  silver.

36. — The  British,  5,000  strong,  cap- 
ture Fort  Washington,  located  between  181st 
and  186th  streets,  N.  Y.  In  this  engagement^ 
the  British  lost  more  than  1,000  men,  while  the 
American  loss  in  killed  and  wounded  did  not 
exceed  100.  More  than  2,000  Americans  were 
made  prisoners  of  war.  [Nothing  could  ex- 
ceed the  horrors  of  those  made  prisoners.  The 
sugar-houses  of  New  York,  being  large,  were 
used  for  the  prisons,  and  therein  scores  suf- 
fered and  died.  But  the  most  terrible  scenes 
occurred  on  board  several  old  hulks,  which 
were  anchored  in  the  waters  around  New  York, 
and  used  for  prisoners.  Of  them,  the  .Jersey 
was  the  most  famous  for  the  sufferings  it  con- 
tained, and  brutality  of  its  officers.  From 
these  vessels,  anchored  near  the  present  Navy 
Yard  at  Brooklyn,  almost  11,000  victims  were 
carried  ashore,  during  the  war,  and  buried  in 
shallow  graves  in  the  sand.  Their  remains 
w^ere  gathered  in  1808,  and  put  in  a vault  sit- 
uated near  the  termination  of  Front  street, 
at  Hudson  avenue,  Brooklyn.] 

I>ec.  8. — The  British  squadron,  defeated 
at  Fort  Sullivan,  sailed  into  Narragansett  Bay, 
and  took  possession  of  Rhode  Island. 

I>ec.  13. — Congress,  alarmed  at  the  ap- 
proach of  the  British  to  Philadelphia,  ad- 
journed to  meet  in  Baltimore  on  the  20th  inst. 

l>ec.  IJ:. — Gen.  Lee,  while  quartered  in  a 
small  tavern  at  Baskingridge,  New  Jersey,  re- 
mote from  his  troops,  was  surrounded  and 
taken  prisoner  by  English  cavalry. 

l>ec.  35. — Washington  crosses  the  Dela- 
ware. 

I>ec.  36. — Battle  of  Trenton.  Rahl,  the 
Hessian  commander,  was  engaged  at  card- 
playing  and  wine-drinking,  when  a negro  gave 
him  a note  from  a Tory,  warning  him  of  the 
approach  of  the  Americans.  Being  deeply  in- 
terested in  the  game,  and  excited  by  wine,  he 
thrust  the  note  unopened  into  his  pocket.  By 
neglecting  to  read  this  note,  he  was  taken 
completely  by  surprise,  and  a little  after  sun- 
rise, and  while  rallying  his  troops'  in  the  streets 
of  Trenton,  he  fell  mortally  wounded.  Be- 
twetween  40  and  50  of  the  Hessians  were 
killed  and  mortally  wounded,  and  more  than 
1,000,  with  arms,  ammunition  and  stores,  were 
made  prisoners. 

1777. 

•Tail.  5. — Battle  of  Princeton.  Washing- 
ton attacks  the  reserves  of  Cornwallis  in  sight 
of  Princeton,  and  just  as  the  tide  of  battle 
was  going  in  his  favor,  Cornwallis  was  aroused 
by  the  distant  booming  of  cannon,  and  has- 
tened to  the  assistance  of  his  reserves.  The 
Americans,  who  had  not  slept,  nor  scarcely 
tasted  food,  for  thirty-six  hours,  were  com- 
pelled, as  the  heat  of  the  first  battle  was  over, 
to  contest  with  fresh  troops  or  fly.  Washing- 
ton choose  to  fly,  and  when  Cornwallis  entered 
Princeton,  not  a “ rebel  ” was  found. 

•fatii.  7. — Americans  attacked  a party  of 
Hessians,  near  Elizabethport,  New  Jersey,  and 
killed  between  forty  and  fifty,  and  drove  the 
remainder  hack  to  Staten  Island. 

iTIarcli.  1. — British  were  driven  entirely 
out  of  the  State  of  New  Jersey,  except  New 
Brunswick  and  Amboy.

Water  Back 


This  Cut  represents  a Water-Back, 
for  Cooking  Stoves  and  Ranges.  It  can 
be  used  for  any  kind  of  Stove  or  Range, 
as  it  can  be  made  of  any  desired  size! 
This  Water-Back  has  a great  advantage 
over  all  others  ever  used  in  the  United 
States,  as  it  can  be  attached  to  both  high 
or  low-hearth  Stoves,  and  can  be  placed 
in  market  at  as  low  rates.  This  Water- 
Back  takes  the  place  of  fire-brick  in  the 
Stove  or  Range,  which  of  itself  is  a 
great  saving,  as  two  sets  of  bricks  are 
usually  required  each  year,  while  one  of 
these  Water-Backs  will  last  for  ages.  A 
stove  constructed  thus  will  bake  better 
than  one  with  fire-brick,  on  account  of 
the  EVEN  HEAT  produced  by  its  passing 
through  the  Water-Back.  It  will  beat 
water  faster  than  the.old  method,  is  by 
far  stronger,  and  is  free  from  the  dan- 
ger of  explosion,  as  the  inlet  and  outlet 
is  same  size  as  the  inner  or  steam  gen- 
erating space.  In  casting  the  old  style, 
nine-tenths  are  worthless  on  account  of 
sand-holes,  which  occur  in  casting ; 
but  in  this  Water-Back  that  difiiculty  is 
obviated  by  lap-welded  tubes  screwed 
together,  with  malleable  Return  Bends 
of  superior  quality.  The  Tubes  are 
cut  to  the  desired  length,  screwed 
together,  and  metal  run  around  them, 
which  forms  the  whole  into  one  solid  piece,  except  the  course  of  the  hollow  tubes.  The  advantages  of  this 
new  Water-Back  over  the  costly  ones  now  in  use  in  Ranges  is  apparent  to  every  one,  as  it  can  be  attached  to 
any  Cooking  Stove,  thereby  saving  the  cost  of  a Range,  and  will  answer  every  purpose  as  well.  Hot  and 
cold  water  can  be  had  in  every  house  at  trifling  expense. 

These  Water-Backs  have  been  in  use  for  the  last  five  years,  and  have  proved  satisfactory  and 
superior  to  any  other.  For  particulars  apply  to

but  the  Americans  perceiving  that  defense 
would  be  futile,  set  fire  to  the  stores  and  re-

icans  under  Gen.  St.  Clair.  Owing  to  the  im-  | 
mense  advantage  gained  by  the  British,  in 
planting  a cannon  on  Mount  Defiance,  a hill 
750  feet  in  height,  the  Americans  were  de- 
feated and  dispersed  with  a loss  of  a little  over

another  party  from  Burgoyne’s  army  were  de- 
feated by  a Continental  force,  under  Col.  Seth

morning,  were  interred  in  one  broad  grave,

to  avoid  the  bayonets  of  his  pursuers,  took 
refuge  in  a stone  house.  This,  together  with 
a heavy  fog,  occasioned  many  mistakes  among 
the  Americans  ; and  after  a severe  action,  they 
were  obliged  to  retreat  with  the  loss  of  about

eral Clinton,  who  was  to  reinforce  Burgoyne  at 
Saratoga,  sends  marauding  parties  through 
the  country,  and  burns  Kingston.  Being  in- 
formed of  Burgoyne’s  surrender,  he  retreats  to 
New  York. — [While  the  American  forces  were 
re-gathering,  a man  from  the  British  army 
was  arrested  on  suspicion  of  being  a spy.  He 
was.  seen  to  swallow  something.  An  >emetic 
brought  it  up,  and  it  was  discovered  to  be  a 
hollow  silver  bullet,  containing  a dispatch 
from  Clinton  to  Burgoyne  written  on  thin 
paper.  That  bullet  is  yet  in  the  family  of 
George  Clinton,  who  was  the  first  Republican 
Governor  of  New  York.]

army,  numbering  6, 791,  to  Gen.  Gates,  at  Sar- 
atoga, N.  Y. 

Oct.  33. — Fort  Mercer,  on  the  Delaware

bly wounded,  and  w^as  taken  to  the  house  of  a 
Quaker  near  by,  wffiere  he  died.  He  was 
buried  beneath  the  fort.  [A  few  years  ago  his 
bones  were  disinterred  and  his  skull  -was  taken 
possession  of  by  a New  Jersey  physician.] 

Howe’s  army  goes  into  winter 
quarters  at  Philadelphia.

I>cc.  4. — Gen.  Howe  marched  out  to  at- 
tack Washington,  expecting  to  take  him  by 
surprise,  but  a Quaker  lady  of  Philadelphia, 
ivho  had  overheard  British  officers  talking 
about  this  enterprise  at  her  house,  gave  Wash- 
ington timely  information,  and  he  was  too  w'oll 
prepared  for  Howe  to  fear  his  mcnances.  Af- 
ter some  skirmishes,  in  which  several  Ameri- 
i cans  -were  lost,  Howe  returned  to  Philadclifflia.

“A  THING  OF  BEAUTY  IS  A JOY  FOREVER.” 


FOR  BEAUTIFYING  THE  COMPLEXION. 


Recommended  and  used  by  the  following  well-known  actresses  and  opera  singers : Lotta,  Clara  Louise 
Kellogg,  Fanny  Janauscliek,  Mrs.  Scott  Siddons,  the  late  Theresa  Titiens,  Misses  Yokes,  and  a host  of 
others. 

When  such  distinguished  ladies  as  the  above-named  have  given  us  their  testimonials  in  favor  of  the 
“LIQUID  PEARL,”  we  think  it  must  be  suthcient  to  satisfy  any  lady  that  this  article  is  a superior  and 
harmless  one  for  preserving,  restoring  and  beautifying  the  Complexion,  Neck,  Arms  and  Hands.  It 
speedily  removes  Sunburn,  Tan,  Freckles,  Pimples,  Sallowness,  &c.,  leaving  the  skin  soft  and  fair, 
and  adds  great  beauty  to  the  Complexion.  The  pleasantest  and  most  reliable  article  in  use  for  the  Toilet; 
its  use  cannot  be  detected  on  the  most  delicate  skin. 

The  eminent  Chemist,  Professor  Hadley,  of  Buffalo,  N.  Y.  (lately  deceased),  has  analyzed  “CHAM- 
PLIN’S  LIQUID  PEARL.”  He  certifies  that  it  contains  No  White  Lead,  “Flake  White,”  or  any- 
thing that  can  possibly  injure  the  most  delicate  skin. 

Ladies,  all  we  ask  is  a trial  of  one  bottle,  and  judge  for  yourselves  of  its  fine  qualities  as  a beautifier. 

For  sale  by  all  leading  Druggists  at  50  Cents  per  bottle.

IMPORTANT  EVENTS  OF  THE  CENTURY. 


\777.  I 

quarters  at  Valley  For^e.  This  was  a gloomy  j 
winter  for  the  Patriot  army.  Continental  | 
money  was  so  depreciated  in  value  that  an  of- 
ficer’s pay  would  not  keep  him  in  clothes. 
The  men  were  camped  in  cold  comfortless 
huts,  with  little  food  or  clothing.  Barefooted, 
they  left  on  the  frozen  ground  their  tracks  in 
blood.  Few  had  blankets,  and  straw  could  not 
be  obtained.  Soldiers,  weak  from  hunger  and 
benumbed  by  cold,  slept  on  the  bare  earth,  I 
with  no  change  of  clothing  and  no  suitable  j 
food ; sickness  soon  followed,  and  with  no  medi-  | 
cine  to  admiaister  to  their  complaints,  many  ! 
found  relief  from  their  sufferings  in  death. 

I>ec.  16. — Independence  of  the  United 
States  acknowledged  by  France. 

I>ec.  18. — Constitution  of  North  Carolina 
adopted. 

During  this  year  Vermont  was  claimed  by 
both  New  York  and  New  Hampshire,  as  a part 
of  their  territory,  but  the  people  met  in  con- 
vention and  proclaimed  themselves  free,  inde- 
pendent, and  separate  States.  After  purchas- 
ing the  claims  of  New  York,  for  $30,000,  Ver- 
mont was  admitted  into  the  Union,  February 
18,  1791. 

1778. 

Feb.  6. — Treaty  of  alliance  was  formed 
with  France,  by  which  the  French  and  Ameri- 
cans became  united  against  the  British  Gov- 
ei’ument. 

j^larcli  20. — American  Commissioners 
were  received  at  the  Court  of  France  as  the 
representatives  of  a sister  nation;  an  event 
which  was  considered  in  Europe,  at  that  time, 
as  the  most  important  which  had  occurred  in 
the  annals  of  America  since  its  first  discovery 
by  Columbus. 

H.-iy  7.  — Salutes  were  fired  by  the  army 
at  Valley  Forge,  in  honor  of  the  event  of  the 
treaty  of  alliance  with  France,  and,  by  Order  of 
Washington,  shouts  and  huzzas  were  pro- 
claimed for  the  King  of  France. 

<Jiiiie  18. — Howe’s  army  evacuate  Phila-  j 
delphia,  and  retreat  towards  New  York.  i 

Jliiiie  28. — The  battle  of  Monmouth  was 
fought  on  a Sabbath  day.  It  was  one  of  the 
most  sultry  ever  known  when  the  two  armies 
met  in  conflict,  which  raged  from  9 A.  M.  until 
dark.  Many  [soldiers  on  both  sides  fell  from 
the  excessive  heat  of  the  day,  and  when  night 
came  they  were  glad  to  rest.  The  British  were 
commanded  by  Gen.  Clinton  and  the  Americans 
by  Washington.  The  Americans  intended  to 
renew  the  fight  on  the  morning  of  the  29th, 
but  found  the  enemy’s  camp  deserted.  The 
British  left  about  300  killed  on  the  field  of  bat- 
tle, and  a large  number  of  sick  and  wounded. 
American  loss  in  killed,  wounded,  and  missing, 
228.  Many  of  the  missing  returned  to  the 
armv,  and  the  killed  was  less  than  70. 

July  5. — Massacre  of  Wyoming.  About 
1,600  Indians  and  Tories,  under  command  of 
Butler  and  Brant,  appeared  on  the  banks  of  the 
Susquehanna,  and  compelled  two  of  the  forts 
nearest  to  the  frontier  to  surrender  to  .them. 
The  savages  spared  the  women  and  children, 
but  butchered  the  rest  of  their  prisoners  with- 
out exception.  They  then  surrounded  Fort 
Kingston,  and  to  dismay  the  garrison,  hurled 
into  the  place  200  scalps  still  reeking  with 
blood.  The  garrison  was  overpowered  by  the 
savages,  and  compelled  to  surrender.  The 
prisoners,  composed  of  men,  women,  and  chil- 
dren, were  then  enclosed  in  houses  and  bar-  | 
Yacks,  which  were  set  on  fire,  and  the  miserable  ^

wretches  were  soon  consumed  by  the  . flames. 
The  whole  Wyoming  valley,  consisting  of  eight 
towns  on  the  Susquehanna,  suffered  the  same 
destruction  of  life  and  property,  and  none  es- 
caped but  a few  women  and  children,  and  these 
dispersed  and  wandered  about  through  the  for- 
ests without  food  and  without  clothes  until 
stftiwed  to  death. 

July  8 . — Count  D’Estaing,  of  the  French 
navy,  arrives  in  the  Delaware  with  a large 
fleet,  causing  Howe  to  retreat  with  his  vessels 
to  the  watei  s of  Amboy  or  Raritan  bay. 

Aiig'.  IS. — Count  D’Estaing  sailed  out  of 
NeAvport  harbor,  Rhode  Island,  to  engage  the 
British  fleet  in  command  of  Howe,  but  a ter- 
rible storm  arose  and  disabled  both  fleets,  and 
the  French  squadron  returned  to  Newport  and 
sailed  to  Boston  for  repairs.  [Very  old  people 
of  Rhode  jlsland  used  to  speak  of  this  gale  as 
the  great  storm.  So  violent  was  the  wind  that 
it  brought  spray  from  the  oeean  a mile  distant, 
and  incrusted  Yhe  windows  of  the  town  with 
salt.] 

Aii^.  SO. — Battle  of  Quaker  Hill,  Rhode 
I Island,  in  which  the  Americans  lost  30  killed 
and  172  wounded  and  missing.  British  loss 
about  220. 

Sept.  SS. — Paul  Jones’  naval  battle.  The 
engagement  lasted  from  seven  in  the  morning 
until  ten  at  night.  The  contest  was  fierce  and 
desperate.  Paul  Johes,  in  command  of  the 
American  flotilla,  finding  the  enemy’s  guns 
longer  than  his,  brought  his  ships  so  close,  un- 
til the  muzzles  of  his  guns  came  in  contact 
with  those  of  the  enemy.  The  magazine  of  the 
British  ship  Serapisblew  up,  set  fire  to  the  ves- 
sel and  communicated  the  flames  to  Jones’  ves- 
sel. In  the  midst  of  this  the  American  frigate 
Alliance  came  up,  and  mistaking  her  partner, 
tired  a broadside  into  the  vessel  of  Jones;  but 
soon  discovered  her  mistake  and  turned  her 
guns  upon  the  enemy.  The  British  crew  were 
a’l  killed  or  wounded,  the  Serapis  on  tire,  (but 
t le  flames  were  afterward  subdued ) and  the 
frigate  Countess  of  Scarborough  captured  by 
the  Americans.  Paul  Jones  came  off  victori- 
ous. His  vessel  ( the  Goodman  Richard)  was 
so  badly  crippled  that  it  soon  sunk;  and  of  the 
crew  of  365,  only  68  were  left  alive.  Jones,  af- 
ter this  victory,  wandered  with  his  unmanage- 
able vessel  for  some  time,  and  at  length,  on 
the  6th  of  October  found  his  way  into  the  wa- 
ters of  the  Texel. 

I Aov.  11. — Cherry  Valley,  New  York,  at- 
j tacked  by  Indians  and  Tories.  Many  of  the 
I people  were  killed  and  carried  into  captivity, 

I and  for  an  area  of  a hundred  miles  around  the 
i village,  desolation,  ruin,  and  destruction  prc- 
i vailed  for  months. 

I>cc.  20. — Savannah  captured.  General 
Howe,  the  American  oflicer,  defended  the  city 
with  about  1,000  men,  while  he  was  attacked 
by  Col.  Campbell  of  the  British  forces  with  2,- 
000  veterans.  Through  the  treachery  of  a ne- 
! gro,  Campbell  was  informed  of  a private  path 
lo  the  right  of  the  Americans,  through  which 
his  troops  marched  and  gained  the  rear  of 
Howe’s  army.  Howe  finding  himself  attacked 
in  front  and  rear  ordered  a retreat,  ])ursued  by 
the  enemy.  The  Americans  lost  100  killed,  38 
officers  and  415  privates  made  prisoners.  The 
whole  loss  of  the  British  was  Z kiWed  and  19 
wounded.

IMPORTANT  EVENTS  OF  THE  CENTURY. 


1779. 

southward  from  Savannah,  captured  by  the 
British. 

rel>.  14. — While  a band  of  Tories,  under 
Col.  Boyd,  were  on  their  march  to  join  the  Roy- 
al troops,  and  desolating  the  Carolina  frontier, 
they  were  attacked  by  Colonel  Pickens,  at  the 
head  of  a body  of  militia.  Boyd  and  70  of  his 
men  were  killed,  and  75  made  prisoners.  Pick- 
ens lost  38. 

Mai’cli  3. — General  Ashe,  in  command  of 
near  2,000  Americans  at  Bluer  creek,  about  40 
miles  below  Augusta,  Ga.,  was  surprised  by 
Gen.  Prevost  and  lost  almost  his  entire  army 
by  death,  captivity,  and  disappearance.  About 
150  killed  and  drowned,  80  made  prisoners,  and 
a large  number  who  were  dispersed,  did  not 
take  up  arms  again  for  several  months. 

Iflarcli  11. — General  Prevost,  command- 
ing the  British  forces,  demands  the  surrender 
of  Charleston,  but,  receiving  a prompt  refusal, 
he  spent  the  remainder  of  the  day  in  preparing 
for  an  assault.  That  night  was  a fearful  one 
for  the  citizens,  for  they  expected  to  be  greeted 
at  dawn  with  bursting  bomb-shells  and  red-hot 
cannon  balls.  But  Prevost  had  been  informed 
of  the  approach  of  Lincoln,  and  at  midnight 
retreated  to  Savannah. 

J^Iarc-li  20. — Governor  Tryon  went  with 
1,500  British  regulars  and  Hessians  to  destroy 
some  salt  works  at  Horseneck,  N.  Y.,  and 
attack  an  American  detachment  under  General 
Putman  at  Greenwich.  The  Americans  were 
dispersed,  but  Putnam  rallied  his  troops  at 
Stamford,  pursued  the  British  on  their  return 
to  New  York  the  same  evening,  capturing  a lot 
of  plunder  and  38  prisoners. 

NSay  9. — Sir  George  Collier  entered  Hamp- 
ton Roads  with  a small  fleet,  bearing  General 
Matthews  with  land  troops,  and  from  thence 
they  carried  destruction  and  desolation  on  both 
sides  of  Elizabeth  river,  from  the  Roads  to  Nor- 
folk and  Portsmouth. 

Jaae  SIO. — The  British  were  attacked  at 
Stone  Ferry,  10  miles  southwest  from  Charles- 
ton, by  a part  of  Lincoln’s  army,  but  after  a 
severe  engagement,  and  the  loss  of  almost  300 
men  in  killed  and  wounded,  they  repulsed  the 
Americans,  whose  loss  was  greater. 

July.  4 . — Collier’s  vessels  conveyed  Gov- 
Tryon  and  2,500  troops  to  the  shores  of  Con- 
necticut, where  they  plundered  New  Haven 
and  laid  East  Haven,  Fairfield,  and  Norwalk  in 
ashes,  and  cruelly  treated  the  defenseless  in- 
habitants. This  destruction  was  completed 
from  the  4th  to  the  12th  of  July. 

•filly  15.  — Stony  Point,  40  miles  north  of 
New  York  on  the  Hudson,  captured  by  General 
Wayne.  Wayne  attacked  the  fort  in  the  rear 
with  ball  and  bayonet  at  two  separate  points, 
in  the  face  of  a heavy  cannonade  from  the  gar- 
rison. Wayne,  though  wounded  in  the  head 
wrote  to  Washington,  “ The  fort  and  garrison, 
with  Col.  Johnson,  are  ours.”  The  British  loss

burying  the  dead.  Nearly  1,000  of  the  French 
and  Americans  had  been  killed  and  wounded. 
A renewal  of  the  assault  \vas  proposed  by 
General  Lincoln,  but  he  was  compelled  to  give 
up  the  idea  when  he  felt  sure  of  victory,  on  ac- 
count of  the  opposition  of  the  French  Com- 
mander. 

Oct.  35. — British  troops  evacuate  Rhode 
Island,  leaving  behind  them  all  their  heavy 
artillery  and  a large  quantity  of  stores. 

1780. 

lliircler  of  Itirjx.  Calcl>vell. — While 
the  British  were  plundering  through  the  State 
of  New  Jersey,  in  the  vicinity  of  Elizabeth- 
town, they  came  upon  the  residence  of  Rev. 
Mr.  Caldwell.  Mrs.  Caldwell  was  sitting  on 
the  bed  with  her  little  child  by  the  hand,  and 
her  nurse,  with  her  infant  babe  by  her  side, 
when  she  was  instantly  shot  dead  by  an  un- 
feeling British  soldier,  who  had  come  around  to 
an  unguarded  part  of  the  house,  with  an  evi- 
dent design  to  perpetrate  the  deed.  Her  mur- 
derer was  never  punished. 

April  1-1- — General  Tarleton,  command- 
ing the  British,  defeated  Col.  Huger  on  the 
head-waters  of  the  Cooper  river,  near  Charles- 
ton, S.  C.,  and  killed  25  Americans. 

Hay  O. — A party  under  Col.  White,  of 
New  Jersey,  were  routed  at  a ferry  on  the 
Santee,  with  a loss  of  about  thirty  in  killed, 
wounded,  and  prisoners. 

Hay  13. — Surrender  of  Charleston.  After 
three  days  of  heavy  cannonade  from  two  hun- 
dred guns,  and  alUnight  long  the  bursting  of 
destructive  bombshells,  and  at  one  time  a fire 
in  five  different  places,  the  city  of  Charleston 
was  surrendered  to  the  British,  under  Gen. 
Clinton.  Gen.  Lincoln  and  his  troops,  with  a 
number  of  citizens,  were  made  prisoners  of 
war.  Altogether  the  captives  amounted  to  be- 
tween 5,000  and  6,000,  and  four  hundred  pieces 
of  cannon. 

[Among  the  American  detachments  which 
hastened  towards  Charleston  to  assist  Lincoln, 
and  retreated  when  they  heard  of  his  fall,  was 
that  of  Col.  Buford,  commanding  400  infantry 
and  a small  troop  of  cavalry,  with  two  field 
pieces.  He  retreated,  and  when  near  the  Wax- 
how  Creek,  some  60  miles  further  north,  he  was 
overtaken  and  supprised  by  Tarleton.  They 
gave  no  quarters,  but  massacred  or  maimed  the 
larger  portion  of  Buford’s  command.  His  loss 
in  killed,  wounded,  and  prisoners  was  313.  He 
also  lost  his  artillery,  ammunition,  and  bag- 
gage.] 

Hay  19.  — Dark  days.  Darkness  com- 
menced between  the  hours  of  10  and  11  A.  M., 
and  continued  until  the  middle  of  the  next 
night.  Its  extent  was  from  Falmouth,  Maine, 
to  New  Jersey.  The  darkness  was  so  great  in 
some  part  of  Massachusetts,  New  Hampshire, 
Maine,  Rhode  Island  and  Connecticut,  that 
])ers()ns  were  unable  to  see  to  read,  or  manage 
their  domestic  business,  without  lighting  can- 
! dies,  and  everything  bore  the  appearance  and 
gloom  of  night. 

I •lime  7.— British  take  possession  of  Eliza- 
bethtown  and  burn  Connecticut  fai'ms. 

•lime  13.— Clinton,  commanding  British 
forces,  endeavors  to  draw  Washington  into  a 
general  battle  or  to  cay)ture  his  stores  at  Mor- 
ristown, but  fails  in  both, 

^•Iime  35.— In  a skirmish  at  S])riugfield, 
N.  J.,  the  British  were  defeated  by  the  Ameri-

the  village,  the  enemy  retreated,  and  passed 
over  to  Staten  Island. 

•filly  lO.— A powerful  French  fleet,  under 
Admiral  Ternay,  arrives  at  Newport,  Rhode  Is- 
land, bearing  6^000  troops,  under  the  Count  de 
Rochambeau.  This  had  a tendency  to  restrain 
■Clinton  from  any  further  advances  towards  en- 
ticing Washington  to  fight. 

Aug*.  C. — Battle  of  Camden.  After  a des- 
perate struggle  with  an  overwhelming  force, 
the  Americans,  under  command  of  Gen.  Gates, 
were  defeated  and  routed  with  a loss  of  killed, 
wounded  and  prisoners,  of  about  1,000  men, 
besides  all  of  their  artillery  and  ammunition 
and  a portion  of  their  baggage  and  stores. 
The  British  loss  was  825.  Among  the  Ameri- 
can officers  killed  was  Baron  de  Kalb,  whose 
remains  yet  lie  under  a monument  at  Cam- 
den. 

•Sept.  4:. — Benedict  Arnold’s  treason  dis- 
covered. 

Sept.  3S. — Major  Andre  was  captured  by 
three  militiamen  named  John  Paulding,  David 
Williams,  and  Isaac  Van  Wart. 

Oct.  d. — Major  John  Andre,  an  adjutant 
general  in  the  British  army,  was  hanged 
as  a spy  at  Tappan,  on  the  Hudson  river.  New 
York. 

Oct.  7. — Battle  of  King’s  Mountain,  South 
-Carolina.  This  was  a severe  engagement,  in 
which  the  British  were  defeated  with  a loss  of 
300  men  in  killed  and  wounded,  and  the  death 
•of  Major  Patrick  Ferguson,  their  commander. 
The  spoils  of  victory,  which  cost  the  Ameri- 
cans only  20  men,  were  800  prisoners  and  1,500 
stand  of  arms. 

rVov.  30. — Gen.  Sumter  engages  the  Bri- 
tish general  Tarleton  at  Blackstocks’s  planta- 
tion 6n  the  Tyger  river,  in  a Union  district. 
The  British  were  repulsed  with  a loss  in  killed 
and  wounded  of  about  300.  The  American  loss 
was  only  3 killed  and  5 wounded.  Sumter  was 
among  the  latter,  and  he  was  detained  from 
the  field  for  several  months,  by  his  wounds. 
1781. 

Murder  of  Mr.  Caldwell  (husband  of  Mrs. 
Caldwell,  killed  in  1780 ).  Mr.  Caldwell  was 
escorting  a lady  from  New  York,  up  town,  in 
Elizabethtown.  She  was  carrying  a small 
bundle  tied  up  in  her  handkerchief,  when  a 
British  sentinel  said  the  bundle  must  be  seized 
for  the  State.  Mr.  Caldwell  immediately  left 
the  lady,  saying  he  would  deliver  the  bundle  to 
the  commanding  officer,  who  was  present;  and, 
as  he  stepped  forward  to  do  so,  another  soldier 
told  him  to  stop,  which  he  immediately  did. 
The  soldier  without  further  provocation  shot 
him  dead  on  the  spot.  The  villian  who  mur- 
dered him  was  seized  and  executed. 

•faii.  1. Mutiny  of  Pennsylvania  Line. 

The  pay  of  officers  and  men  of  the  Continental 
army  had  been  so  long  in  arrears,  and  money 
askd  for  in  vain,  that  finally  1,300  troops  of  the 
Pennsylvania  Line  left  the  camp  at  Morristown, 
with  the  avowed  determination  of  marching 
to  Philadelphia,  and  in  person,  demand  justice 
of  the  National  Legislature.  When  the  muti- 
neers reached  Princeton  they  were  met  by 
British  emissaries  from  New  York,  who  came 
to  seduce  them  by  bribes  to  enter  the  King’s 
service.  Indignant  at  the  implied  suspicion  of 
their  patriotism,  the  insurgents  seized  the 
spies  and  delivered  them  to  Gen.  Wayne  for 
punishment.  When  Gen.  Wayne,  who  was 
sent  by  Washington  to  bring  the  insurgents 
back,  first  placed  himself  before  the  insurgents

with  loaded  pistols,  they  put  their  bayonets  to 
his  breast,  and  said:  “We  love  and  respect 
you,  but  if  you  fire  you  are  a dead  man.  Wo 
are  not  going  to  the  enemy  ; on  the  contrary,  if 
they  were  now  to  come  out,  you  should  sec  us 
fight  under  your  orders  with  as  much  alacrity 
as  ever.”  They  were  met  also  by  a deputation 
from  Congress,  who  relieved  their  wants,  and 
gave  them  such  satisfactory  guarantees  for  the 
future,  that  they  returned  to  their  duty. 

•fsiii. — The  Bank  of  North  America,  the 
first  ever  established  in  the  United  States, 
about  this  time  came  into  existence  in  Phila- 
delphia. It  was  under  the  charge  of  Robert 
Morris,  to  whose  superintendence  Congress  had 
intrusted  the  public  Treasury. 

•Fail.  5. — Benedict  Arnold,  traitor,  now  in 
the  employ  of  the  British,  penetrates  up  the 
James  river,  and  destroys  a large  quantity  of 
public  and  private  stores  at  Richmond.  [Great 
efforts  were  made  to  seize  Arnold.  Sergeant 
Champs,  one  of  Major  Lee’s  dragoons,  went  in 
disguise  to  New  York,  enlisted  in  a corpse  over 
which  Arnold  had  command,  and  had  almost 
consummated  a plan  for  abducting  him  to  the 
Jersey  shore,  when  the  traitor  was  ordered  to 
the  Southern  expedition.  Instead  of  carrying- 
Arnold  off,  Champs,  himself,  was  taken  to  Vir- 
ginia with  the  corps  in  which  he  had  enlisted- 
There  he  escaped  and  joined  Lee  in  the  Caro- 
linas.] 

•J  an.  17. — Defeat  of  the  British  at  Cowpens,.

New  London  (his  native  town ),  Connecticut. 
Another  division  of  this  expedition  went  up  on 
the  east  side  of  the  Thames,  attacked  Fort 
Griswold,  at  Groton,  and  after  Col.  Ledyard 
had  surrendered  it,  he,  and  almost  every  man 
in  the  fort  were  cruelly  murdered  or  "badly 
wounded. 

Sept.  8. — Battle  of  Eutaw  Springs,  S.  C. 
This  was  a severe  battle,  which  resulted  in  the 
British  being  driven  from  their  camp  by  Gen. 
Greene.  But  while  the  Americans  were  scat- 
tered among  the  tents  of  the  enemy,  indulging 
in  drinking  and  plundering,  the  British  unex- 
pectedly renewed  the  battle,  and,  after  a 
bloody  conflict  of  about  four  hours,  the  Amer- 
icans were  obliged  to  give  way.  That  night, 
the  British  retreated  to  Charleston,  and  the 
next  day,  Greene  took  possession  of  the  battle- 
field. American  loss  in  killed,  wounded  and

up  a heavy  cannonade  upon  the  British  works 
at  Yorktown,  and  hurled  red-hot  balls  among 
the  English  shipping,  and  burned  several  ves- 
sels. Cornwallis,  despairing  of  receiving  any 
aid,  and  perceiving  his  fortifications  crumb- 
ling one  by  one  under  the  terrible  storm  of 
iron  from  a hundred  heavy  cannon,  attempted 
to  escape  by  crossing  to  Gloucester,  break 
through  the  French  troops  stationed  there, 
and,  by  forced  marches,  reach  New  York. 
When  the  van  of  his  troops  embarked  on  York 
River,  a storm  arose  as  fearful  and  as  sudden 
as  a summer  tornado,  disbursed  the  boats, 
compelled  many  to  put  back,  and  the  attempt 
was  abandoned.  Cornwallis  surrendered  7,000 
British  soldiers  to  Washington,  and  his  ship- 
ping and  seamen  into  the  hands  of  DeGrasse. 

Oct.  34^. — Congress,  and  the  loyal  people

Swedish  School  House,  Centennial  Exposition,  Philadelphia.— 

This  building  was  erected  by  the  government  of  Sweden.  It  is  composed  entirely  ot 
Avood,  either  polished  or  oiled,  and  was  brought  from  Sweden  prepared  to  be  put  to- 
gether upon  the  grounds.  The  most  singular  part  of  it  is  that  it  is  impossible,  on  the 
exterior,  to  discover  a nail  or  screw.  The  boards  are  beveled  and  so  joined  together 
that  no  seams  are  visible.  It  is  intended  to  keep  school  there  during  the  Summer;  gen- 
uine Swedish  youths  of  both  sexes,  with  teachers,  will  be  brought  over  for  that  pur- 
pose.

1794. 

Whisky  insui’rection  in  Pennsylvania.  A 
law  was  passed  in  1791,  which  imposed  duties 
on  domestic  distilled  liquors,  and  when  officers 
of  the  Government  were  sent  to  enforce  it 
among  the  Dutch  inhabitants  of  western  Penn- 
sylvania, they  were  resisted  by  the  people  in 
arms.  The  insurrection  soon  became  general 
in  all  the  western  counties,  and  in  the  vicinity 
of  Pittsburgh  many  outrages  were  committed. 
Buildings  were  burned,  mails  were  robbed,  and 
Government  officers  were  insulted  and  abused. 
It  was  thought  that  the  insurgents  at  one  time 
numbered  7,000.  The  President  ordered  a 
large  body  of  malitia,  under  Gen.  Henry  Lee, 
to  the  scene  of  these  troubles,  and  the  insur- 
rectionists were  dispersed  and  obedience  to  the 
laws  enforced.  -- 

Congress  appropriates  seven  hundred  thou- 
sand dollars  for  the  purpose  of  organizing  a 
navy.  This  was  the  first  movement  of  the 
United  States  in  establishing  a na^y. 

Fel>. — Bank  of  United  States  incorporated 
with  a capital  of  $10,000,000.  Prior  to  this, 
the  whole  banking  capital  in  the  United 
States  was  only  $2,000,000,  invested  in  the 
Bank  of  North  America,  at  Philadelphia;  the 
Bank  of  New  York,  in  New  York  City  ; and  the 
Bank  of  Massachusetts,  in  Boston. 

April  19  . — John  Jay  was  appointed  by 
the  United  States  envoy  extraordinary  to  the 
British  Court,  to  adjust  all  complaints  grow- 
ing out  of  the  Revolutionary  war,  such  as  the 
British  violating  the  treaty  of  September  3, 
1783,  by  holding  military  posts  on  the  fron- 
tiers ; that  British  emissaries  incited  the  In- 
dians to  hostilities  ; that  no  indemnification 
had  been  made  for  plantations  plundered  and 
negroes  sold  into  the  West  Indies  at  the  close 
of  the  war  ; and  also  to  remonstrate  to  the 
English  government  against  capturing  neutral 
vessels  and  impressing  our  seamen  into  their 
service. 

1795. 

Aov.  S8.— A treaty  of  peace  was  made 
with  the  Dey  of  Algiers,  by  which  an  annual 
tribute  was  given  by  the  United  States,  for  the 
redemption  of  captives.  Between  the  years 
1785  and  1793,  the  Algerine  pirates  captured 
and  carried  into  Algiers  fifteen  American  ves- 
sels, and  made  180  officers  and  seamen  slaves 
of  the  most  revolting  kind.  By  this  treaty  the 
LFnited  States  agrees  to  pay  $800,000  for  cap- 
tives then  alive,  and  in  additioia,  to  make  the 
Dey,  or  governor,  a present  of  a frigate  worth 
$100,000.  An  annual  tribute  of  $23,000,  in 
maritime  stores,  was  also  paid.  This  was 
complied  with  until  the  breaking  out  of  the 
w^ar  of  1812. 

•I line  34. — A treaty,  concluded  by  Mr. 
Jay,  with  the  British  government,  w^as  rati- 
fied by  the  Senate.  This  treaty  w'as  not  very 
satisfactory.  It  provided  for  the  collection  of 
debts  here  by  British  creditors,  w'hich  had 
been  contracted  before  the  revolution,  but  pro- 
cured no  redress  for  those  wdio  lost  negroes.  It

demanded  the  use  of  his  vessel  to  carry  an  am- 
bassador to  Constantinople.  Bainbridge  re- 
monstrated, when  the  Bey  haughtily  observed  : 
■“You  pay  me  tribute,  by  which  you  become 
my  slaves,  and  therefore  I have  a right  to 
order  you  as  I think  proper.”  Bainbridge  was

without  losing  a man. 

jr,ily  13  . — Alexander  Hamilton  killed  in  a 
duel  by  Aaron  Burr.  The  difiiculty  grew  out 
of  a political  quarrel.  Burr  had  been  informed 
of  some  remarks  made  by  Hamilton  in  public, 
derogatory  to  his  character,  and  he  demanded 
a retraction.  Hamilton  considered  his  demand 
unreasonable,  and  refused  compliance.  Burr 
challenged  him  to  fight,  and  Hamilton  reluct- 
antly met  him  on  the  west  side  of  the  Hudson, 
near  Hoboken,  N.  J.,  where  they  fought  with 
pistols.  Hamilton  discharged  his  weapon  in 
the  air,  but  Burr  took  fatal  aim,  and  his  antag- 
onist fell.  Hamilton  died  the  next  clay.

terms  of  peace. 

Yellow  fever  pestilence  in  New  York. 

1800. 

Cause  of  'Wai*  in  1813. — England 
insists  upon  continuing  the  right  to  search 
American  vessels  for  suspected  deserters  from 
the  British  navy.  American  seamen  were 
thus  forced  into  the  British  service,  under  the 
pretense  that  they  were  deserters.  The  British 
in  persisting  in  this  outrage  upon  American 
seamen  brought  on  the  war  of  1812, 

Xreasoii  ot*  Itavi*. — During  the  sum- 
mer of  this  year  Aaron  Burr  organized  military 
expeditions  in  the  west,  and  the  secrecy  with 
which  he  carried  on  his  operations,  led  the  gov- 
ernment to  suspect  that  he  designed  to  dis- 
member the  Union,  and  establish  an  independ- 
ent empire  west  of  the  Alleghenies,  with  him- 
self at  the  head. 

1807. 

Fel>. — Aaron  Burr  arrested  on  the  Tombig- 
bee  river,  in  the  State  of  Alabama,  on  the- 
charge  of  treason.  He  was  tried  at  Richmond, 
Va.,  but  the  testimony  showed  that  his  proba- 
ble design  was  an  invasion  of  Mexican  ])rov- 
inces,  and  then  to  establish  an  independent 
government.  He  was  accinitted. 

•Fiiiic  33. — The  Chesapeake  fired  upon  by 
the  British  frigate  Leopard.  The  British  de- 
manded four  seamen  from  the  commander  of 
the  Chesapeake,  claiming  them  as  deserters 
from  the  British  ship  Melampns.  Commodore 
Barron,  not  suspecting  danger,  and  unpi-eparcd 
for  an  attack,  surrendered  tlie  Chesa])oake 
after  losing  three  men  killed  and  eighteen 
wounded. 

July.  — Proclamation  issued  ordering  all 
British  armed  vessels  to  leave  the  waters  of 
the  United  States,  and  forbidding  any  to  enter 
until  full  satisfaction  is  given  for  the  outrage 
on  the  United  States  frigate  Chesapeake,  and 
security  against  future  aggressions  should  be 
made. 

)Nov.  11. — British  in  council  issiie  an  order 
prohibiting  neutral  nations  trading  with  France, 
excci)ting  upon  paying  a tribute  to  Great 
Britain;  and  France  retaliates  by  issuing  a.

decree  December  17.  forbidding  all  trade  with 
England  or  her  colonies,  and  authorizing  the 
confiscation  of  any  vessel  found  in  French  ports 
Avhich  had  submilted  to  English  search,  or  paid 
the  exacted  tribute.  These  retaliating  war 
measures  between  England  and  France  almost 
destroyed  American  shipping  trade  abroad. 

l>cc.  — Congress  decreed  an  embargo, 

which  detained  all  vessels,  American  and 
foreign,  in  our  ports,  and  ordered  American 
vessels  home  immediately,  that  the  seamen 
might  be  trained  for  war. 

The  first  steamboat  built  in  the  world  by 
Robert  Fulton,  in  New  York.  It  was  named 
^‘Clermont,”  and  made  its  first  trip  during  this 
year  from  New  York  to  Albany. 

1808. 

•Fmi.  1. — The  importation  of  African  slaves 
into  the  United  States,  prohibited  by  Congress. 

Commodore  Barron,  of  the  Chesapeake,  tried 
and  sentenced  to  be  suspended  for  five  years,  on 
account  of  surrendering  his  vessel  to  the  Brit- 
ish in  1807. 

1800. 

llsii'cli  1. — Congress  repeals  the  embargo 
on  shipping,  and  at  the  same  time  passes  a law 
forbidding  all  commercial  intercourse  with 
England  and  France  until  their  obnoxious  re- 
strictions on  commerce  shall  be  removed. 

J:. — James  Madison  inaugurated 
President  of  the  United  States,  and  George 
Chilton  as  Vice-President. 

General  Harrison  concludes  a treaty  with 
the  Miami  Indians,  by  which  the  United  States 
gets  possession  of  a large  tract  of  land  on  both 
sides  of  the  Wabash. 

1810. 

Third  census  of  the  United  States.  Popula- 
tion, 7,239,814. 

Ulsifcli  — France  issued  a decree  which 
declared  every  American  vessel  which  had 
entered  French  ports  since  March,  1810,  or  that 
might  thereafter  enter,  as  forfeited,  and  au- 
thorized the  sale  of  the  same,  together  with  the 
cargoes,  and  money  to  be  placed  in  the  French 
treasury.  Bonaparte  justified  this  decree  on 
the  plea  that  it  was  made  in  retaliation  for  the 
American  decree  of  non-intercourse. 

— Congress  offers  to  resume  commer- 
cial relations  with  either  France  or  England, 
or  both,  on  condition  that  they  repeal  their  ob- 
noxious orders  and  decrees  before  March  3, 
1811.  France  feigned  compliance,  and  the 
United  States  resumed  commercial  intercourse 
with  that  nation.  But  American  vessels  con- 
tinued to  be  siezed  by  French  cruisers,  and  on 
March,  1811,  Napoleon  declared  the  obnoxious 
laws  to  still  exist,  and  America  thereafter 
ceased  intercourse  with  that  nation. 

1811. 

Api*il  16. — Engagement  between  the 
American  frigate.  President,  Commodore  Rog- 
ers commanding,  and  the  British  sloop-of-war. 
Little  Belt,  Captain  Bingham.  The  Little 
Belt  was  preying  upon  American  merchantmen 
when  hailed  by  Rogers,  of  the  President,  and 
received  a cannon  shot  in  reply.  A brief  ac- 
tion ensued,  when  Captain  Bingham,  after  los-, 
ing  eleven  men  killed  and  twenty-one  wound- 
ed, gave  a satisfactory  answer  to  Rogers.  At 
this  time,  the  American  navy  numbered  only 
twelve  large  vessels  of  war  ; the  British  near 
nine  hundred.

of  Chatham  and  Duane  streets,  N.  Y.,  and  de- 
stroyed nearly  one  hundred  buildings  on  both 
sides  of  Chatham  street. 

J^'ov.  11. — Battle  of  Tippecanoe.  At  four 
o’clock  in  the  morning,  the  Indians  attacked 
the  American  camp,  commanded  by  Gen.  Har- 
rison, but  after  a bloody  battle,  lasting  until 
dawn,  the  Indians  were  repulsed.  The  battle 
of  Tippecanoe  was  one  of  the  most  desperate 
ever  fought  with  the  Indians,  and  the  loss  was 
heavy  on  both  sides. 

The  British  government  declare  the  attack 
on  the  Chesapeake  to  have  been  unauthorized, 
and  promised  pecuniary  aid  to  the  families  of 
those  who  were  killed. 

l>ec.  27. — Burning  of  the  Theatre  at 
Richmond,  Va.  There  were  about  600  persons 
in  the  audience  whenthe  fire  was  first  discov- 
ered. There  was  but  one  door  for  egress,  and 
men,  women  and  children  were  pressing  upon 
each  other  to  get  out,  while  the  flames  were 
surging  upon  those  behind.  It  is  supposed 
there  were  61  persons  burned  to  death. 

During  this  year,  British  orders  for 
searching  American  vessels  and  impressing 
American  seamen  were  rigorously  enforced ; 
insult  after  insult  was  offered  the  American 
flag,  and  the  British  press  insolently  boasted 
that  the  United  States  “could  not  be  kicked 
into  a war.”  A continuation  of  these  outrages 
brought  on  the  war  of.  1812. 

1813. 

War  of  1812. — Congress  passed  an 
act  empowering  the  President  to  enlist  25,- 
000  men,  accept  50,000  volunteers,  and  to  call 
out  100,000  militia.  Henry  Dearborn  appointed 
commander-in-chief. 

British  Government  declared  the  whole 
American  coast  to  be  in  a state  of  block- 
ade, except  that  of  the  New  England  States. 
The  apparent  sympathy  of  these  States  with 
Great  Britain  caused  the  enemies  of  our  coxxn- 
try  to  think  that  they  would  secede  from  the 
Union;  but,  as  the  war  progressed,  it  proved 
that  their  patriotism  was  was  too  stroog  to  ad- 
mit of  such  a catastrophe. 

•lime. — Mob  in  Baltimore.  A newspaper, 
called  the  Federal  Eepiihlicun,  was  destroyed 
by  a mob  for  uttering  sentiments  of  censure 
on  the  conduct  of  the  Government.  Shortly 
after  this  affair,  the  paper  made  its  appearance 
again,  containing  severe  allusions  to  the 
mayor,  police,  and  people  of  Baltimore  for  the 
depredations  that  had  been  committed  upon 
the  establishment.  The  office  was  again 
mobbed,  and  during  the  frequent  discharge  of 
muskets,  Dr.  Gale  was  killed,  when  the  party 
in  the  office  were  finally  escorted  by  the  mili- 
tary to  the  county  jail  for  protection  against 
further  violence.  Shortly  after  dark,  the  mob 
j assembled  at  the  jail,  carried  the  mayor  away 
I by  force,  and  compelled  the  turnkey  to  open 
the  door.  General  Lingan  was  killed  ; eleven 
were  beaten  and  mangled  with  such  weapons 
as  stones,  bludgeons,  sledge-hammers,  etc., 
and  thrown  as  dead  into  one  pile.  Mr.  Han- 
son, editor  of  the  paper,  fainting  from  re- 
peated wound.s,  was  carried  away  by  a gentle- 
man of  opposite  political  sentiments,  at  the 
risk  of  his  life.  No  effectual  inquiry  was  ever 
made  into  this  violation  of  the  law,  and  the 
guilty  escaped  punishment. 

First  house  in  Rochester,  N.  Y.,  built. 

April  8. — Louisiana  admitted  as  a State. 

April  12. — Death  of  George  Clinton,

3,000  prisoners,  and  a vast  amount  of  booty, 
were  captured  by  the  Americans. 

l>oo.  — Commodore  Bainbridge,  com- 
manded the  frigate  Constitution,  after  three 
hours  fighting,  captured  the  British  frigate 
Java,  off  San  Salvador.  The  Java  had  400 
men  on  board,  of  whom  almost  200  were  killed 
©r  wounded,  and  she  was  so  badly  crippled  that 
Bainbridge,  finding  her  incapable  of  floating, 
burned  her  three  days  after  the  action.  The 
Constitution  was  very  little  damaged.

•Fa.li.  17, — The  British  frigate  Narcissus 
captured  the  United  States  schooner  Viper. 

•Fan.  iJtJ. — Americans  defeated  at  French- 
town,  about  25  miles  south  of  Detroit.  A com- 
bined force,  under  Proctor,  of  1,500  British  and 
Indians,  fell  upon  the  American  camp,  com- 
manded by  Gen.  Winchester,  at  dawn.  After 
a severe  battle  and  heavy  loss  on  both  sides, 
Winchester,  who  was  made  prisoner  by  the  In- 
dians, surrendered  his  troops  on  condition  that 
ample  protection  should  be  given.  Proctor, 
fearing  the  approach  of  Harrison,  immediately 
marched  for  Malden,  leaving  the  sick  and 
wounded  Americans  behind,  who  were  after- 
wards murdered  and  scalped  by  the  Indians.

the  British. 

Fell.  34.-^United  States  sloop-of-war. 
Hornet,  Capt.  Lawrence,  engages  the  British 
brig,  Peacock,  off  tlie  month  of  Demara  river, 
South  America.  The  Peacock  surrendered 
after  a conflict  of  fifteen  minutes,  and  a few 
moments  afterward  she  sunk,  carrying  down 
with  her  nine  British  seamen  and  three  Amer- 
icans. The  loss  of  the  Peacock  in  killed  and 
wounded  was  37 ; of  the  Hornet  only  5. 

April  25. — Mobile  taken  by  a body  of  the 
American  army. 

April  27. — Americans  capture  York  (now 
Toronto).  The  Americans  landed  about  two 
miles  west  of  the  British  works,  and  in  the  face 
of  a galling  fire  from  regulars  and  Indians, 
under  Gen.  Sheaffe,  drove  them  back  to  their 
fortifications.  The  British  retreated  from  the 
fort,  but  laid  a train  of  wet  powder  to  the  maga- 
zine, and  set  fire  to  it,  and  while  Gen.  Pike, 
was  pressing  forward,  the  fort  blew  np,  causing 
great  destruction  of  life  among  the  Americans. 
Gen.  Pike  was  mortally  wounded,  but  he  lived 
long  enough  to  know  that  the  American  flag 
floated  in  triumph  over  the  fort  at  Toronto. 
Gen.  Sheafte  escaped  with  the  principal  part  of 
the  troops,  but  lost  all  his  baggage,  hooks, 
papers,  and  a large  amount  of  public  jiroperty. 

2. — British  repulsed  at  Fort  San- 
dusky, Ohio.  The  garrison  of  the  fort  con- 
sisted of  150  young  men,  commanded  by  Major 
Croghan,  was  assaulted  by  500  regulars  and 
800  Indians,  under  Gen.  Proctoi'.  The  British 
recoiled,  panic-stricken,  and  fled  in  confusion, 
leaving  150  of  their  killed  and  wounded. 
American  loss,  1 man  killed  and  7 wounded. 

lliiy  :t,  — Havre  de  Grace,  Md.,  burned  by 
the  British  hlockaditig  squadron. 

.^Fay.  — Unsuccessful  seige  of  Fort  Meigs, 
on  the  Maumee  river,  by  the  British.  Gen. 

I Clay,  commanding  1,200  men,  arrived  with  re- 
inforcements for  the  fort  and  dispersed  the  en- 
emy, but  imprudently  pursuing  the  fugitives, 
was  surrounded  and  ca])tnred.  Proctor  re- 
turned to  the  siege,  but  his  Indian  allies  under 
Tecnmseh,  becoming  impatient,  deserted  him, 
and  the  siege  was  abandoned.

mere  creature  of  an  old  recipe,  gotten  up  without  knowledge  or  skill,  but  is  the  result  of  long  study,  and  is 
only  offered  to  the  public  after  being  used  in  private  practice  for  sixteen  years;  and  after  testing  it  in  a 
thousand  of  the  above  diseases,  we  have  offered  it  for  sale,  and  duriii"  the  first  year  more  than  two  hundred 
thousand  bottles  were  sold  for  cash  without  advertising.

IMPORTANT  EVENTS  OF  THE  CENTURY. 


181». 

May  27  , — Fort  George,  on  the  western  I 
shore  of  Niagara  river,  near  its  mouth,  surren-  j 
dered  to  the  Americans.  I 

May  30. — British  repulsed  at  Sackett’s  j 
Harbor.  Sir  George  Prevost  and  1,000  sol- 
diers landed  in  the  face  of  a severe  fire  from  j 
some  regulars  stationed  there.  Gen.  Brown, 
commander,  rallied  the  malitia,  and  their  rapid  j 
gathering  so  alarmed  Prevost,  that  he  hastily  J 
re-embarked,  leaving  almost  the  whole  of  his 
wounded  behind. 

•laae  1. — ‘‘‘■Don’t  give  up  the  ship  !”  Capt.  j 
Lawrence,  now  in  command  of  the  frigate  ! 
Chesapeake  encountered  the  British  frigate 
Shannon,  about  30  miles  from  Boston.  A furi-  i 
ous  action  commenced  which  lasted  only  fifteen 
minutes.  In  that  short  time  the  Chesapeake  j 
lost  48  killed  and  98  wounded;  the  Shannon  23  | 
killed  and  56  wounded.  Lawrence,  with  his  i 
second  officer  in  command,  Ludlow,  were  among  ! 
the  slain  at  the  beginning  of  the  action;  and, 
when  Lawrence  was  carried  below,  he  issued  i 
those  brave  and  ever  memorable  words  : “Don’t 
give  up  the  ship.”  During  the  contest  the  two 
vessels  became  entangled,  and  the  British 
boarded  the  Chesapeake,  and,  after  a desperate 
hand-to-hand  struggle,  hoisted  the  British  flag. 
The  remains  of  Lawrence,  together  with  Lud- 
low’s, were  carried  to  Halifax  and  buried  with 
^he  honors  of  war. 

•f  line  O. — British  attack  American  camp 
at  Stony  Creek,  Canada  West,  and  were  re- 
pulsed. It  was  very  dark,  and  in  the  confusion 
both  of  the  American  generals  ( Chandler  and 
Winder)  were  made  prisoners.  Ameri- 
can loss  in  killed,  wounded  and  missing,  154. 

•f  iiiie  3J8. — Admiral  Cockburn  defeated  at 
Craney  Island. 

•lime. — Gen.  Dearborn,  on  account  of  ill- 
health,  retires  from  commander-in-chief  of 
tlie  army,  and  is  succeeded  by  General  Wil- 
kinson. 

Aiig'.  1-4. — British  sloop-of-war  Pelican 
captures  the  American  brig  Argus. 

Aug.  — Fort  jMimms,  on  the  Alabama  j 

river,  surprised  and  captured  by  a large  ' 
body  of  Indians,  under  Tecumseh,  who  j 
massacred  about  300  men,  women,  and  chil- 
dren. 

Sept.  5. — British  brig  Boxer,  Captain 
Blythe,  encounters  American  brig  Enterprise, 
Lieut.  Burrows,  and  after  an  engagement  of 
forty  minutes,  off  the  coast  of  Maine,  the  Box- 
er surrendered.  Both  commanders  were  slain, 
and  their  bodies  were  buried  in  one  grave  at 
Portland. 

Sept.  lO. — Perry’s  victory  on  Lake  Erie. 
The  carnage  of  this  engagement^  was  very 
great.  The  Lawrence,  Perry’s  flag  ship,  was 
soon  disabled  and  became  unmanageable,  hav- 
ing all  her  crew,  except  four  or  five,  killed  or 
wounded.  Perry  then  left  her,  in  an  open 
boat,  and  hoisted  his  flag  on  the  Niagara. 
With  this  vessel  he  passed  through  the  ene- 
my’s line,  pouring  broadsides  right  and  left  at 
half  pistol-shot  distance.  The  American  loss, 

27  killed  and  96  wounded.  The  British  lost 
about  200  in  killed  and  wounded,  and  600  pris-  , 
oners.  The  British  were  commanded  by  Com-  < 
inodore  Barclay. 

rtept.  39. — Detroit  evacuated  by  Proctor,  : 
and  taken  possession  of  by  the  Americans. 

€lcf.  a. — Battle  of  the  Thames  in  Canada. 
Gen.  Harrison,  with  3,500  men,  overtook  Proc- 
tor in  his  retreat  from  Detroit,  about  80  miles 
from  that  city.  A desperate  battle  ensued.

1813. 

Tecumseh  was  slain,  and  his  followers,  who- 
fought  furiously,  broke  and  tied.  Almost  the 
whole  of  Proctor’s  command  were  killed  or 
made  prisoners,  and  the  General  himself  nar- 
rowly escaped  with  a few  of  his  cavalry. 

3iov.  3. — Gen.  Coffee,  with  900  men,  sur- 
rounds an  Indian  camp  near  where  the  village 
of  Jacksonville,  Benton  county,  Alabama,  now 
stands,  and  killed  200  of  them.  Not  a warrior 
escaped. 

i\ov.  5. — Americans  again  invade  Canada, 

7.000  strong,  with  the  intention  of  co-operating 
with  about  4,000  troops  under  Hampton,  in  an 
attack  on  Montreal. 

j^ov.  11. — Battle  of  Chrysler’s  Field, 
about  ninety  miles  above  Montreal,  on  the  St. 
Lawrence  river.  This  battle  was  fought  by  a 
detachment  under  General  Brown,  who  was 
sent  to  disperse  the  British  at  Williamsburg, 
and  cover  the  descent  of  boats  carrying  Amer- 
ican troops  on  the  St.  Lawrence.  Americans 
lost  more  than  300  men  in  killed  and  wounded, 
and  the  British  about  200. 

Hec.  lO, — ^General  McClure,  commanding 
at  Fort  George,  burnt  the  Canadian  village  of 
Newark,  and  two  days  after  was  compelled  by 
the  British  to  abandon  the  fort. 

l>ec.  lO. — Fort  Niagara  captured  by  a. 
strong  force  of  British  and  Indians,  and,  in  re- 
taliation for  the  burning  of  Newark,  set  fire 
and  destroyed  Youngstown,  Lewistown,  Man- 
chester (now  Niagara  Falls),  and  the  Tuscoro- 
ra  Indian  village,  in  Niagara  county. 

I>ec.  30. — Buffalo  and  the  little  village  of 
Black  Rock  laid  in  ashes,  and  a large  amount 
of  public  and  private  property  destroyed. 

The  remains  of  Captain  James  Lawrence, 
who  died  from  wounds  received  on  board  of 
the  United  States  frigate,  Chesapeake,  in  1813, 
were  removed  from  Halifax  and  interred  in 
Trinity  church  yard,  N.  Y.,  with  imposing 
ceremony. 

Power  loom  introduced  in  the  United 
States. 

During  the  spring  and  summer  Admiral 
Cockburn,  with  a small  squadron,  carried  on  a 
distressing  warfare  on  the  coast  between  Dela- 
ware Bay  and  Chai-leston.  The  shiiq)ing  in 
the  Delaware  was  destroyed,  and  Lewistown 
cannonaded;  Frenchtown,  Havre  de  Grace, 
Georgetown,  and  Frederickstown,  on  the  Ches- 
apeake, were  plundered  and  burned. 

1814. 

llai’cli  "Sy. — General  Jackson  attacked 
and  defeated  the  Indians  at  the  Great  Horse- 
Shoe  Bend,  on  the  Tallapoosa  river.  The  In- 
dians had  assembled  there,  in  a fortified  camp, 

1.000  warriors  strong,  vvitli  their  women  ami 

cliildren,  determined  to  make  a desperate  de- 
fense. They  fought  bravely,  and  almost  000 
of  their  warriors  were  killed,  as  they  refused 
to  surrender.  Only  two  or  three  were  made 
prisoners,  with  about  300  women  and  children. 
Among  those  who  bowed  in  submission  was 
Weathersford,  their  greatest  leader.  He  ap- 
peared suddenly  before  Jackson,  in  his  tent, 
and  standing  erect  said  : “1  am  in  your  power; 

do  with  me  what  you  please.  1 have  done  the 
white  people  all  the  harm  I could.  1 have 
fought  them  bravely.  My  warrioi-s  are  all 
gone  now,  and  I can  do  no  more.  When  there 
was  a chance  for  success  I never  asked  for 
peace.  There  is  none  now,  and  I ask  for  it  for 
the  remnant  of  my  nation.”

IMPORTANT  EVENTS  OF  THE  CENTURY. 


1814. 

Captain  Porter,  was  captured  in  the  harbor  of 
Valparaiso,  by  the  British  frigate  Phoebe,  and 
sloop-of-war  Cherub.  It  was  a desperate  bat- 
tle, the  Essex  loosing  154  men  killed  and 
wounded.  Captain  Porter,  in  acknowledging 
the  defeat  to  the  Secretary  of  the  Navy,  says  : 
“We  have  been  unfortunate  but  not  dis- 
graced.” 

April  31. — The  United  States  sloop-of- 
war  Frolic  was  captured  by  the  British  frigate 
Orpheus  and  schooner  Shelbourne. 

April  39  . — The  Peacock  captured  the 
British  brig  Epervier,  off  the  coast  of  Florida.

fended by  about  300  men,  under  Captain  Mitch- 
ell, and  a small  flotilla,  under  Captain  Wool- 
sey.  They  defended  the  place  for  two  days, 
when  they  were  compelled  to  yield  to  superior 
force.  The  British  loss  was  235  men  in  killed 
and  wounded;  the  Americans  lost  69.  The  ob- 
ject of  the  British  in  this  expedition  was  to  de- 
stroy or  capture  a large  quantity  of  stores  at 
Oswego  Falls,  but  the  determined  resistance 
they  met  with  caused  them  to  abandon  the 
project. 

j Illy  3. — Generals  Scott  and  Ripley  cross 
the  Niagara  river  into  Canada,  and  capture 
Fort  Erie. 

^ -filly  5 . — Battle  of  Chippewa.  General

The  British  retreated  to  Burlington  Heights, 
where  they  were  reinforced  by  troops  under 
Lieut. -Gen.  Drummond,  who  assumed  com- 
mand. 

July  35. — Battle  of  Niagara  Falls.  The 
British  force,  under  Drummond,  was  about 
one-third  greater  than  Brown’s.  The  battle 
commenced  at  sunset,  and  ended  at  midnight, 
when  the  Americans  had  lost  858  men  in  killed 
and  wounded,  and  the  British  878.  The  Amer- 
icans were  left  in  possession  of  the  field,  but  i 
wei-e  unable  to  carry  away  any  of  the  spoils  ■ 
which  they  had  captured.  Generals  Scott  and  i 
Brown  were  wounded.  The  Americans  retired 
to  Fort  Erie,  where  General  Gaines  took  chief 
conrmand. 

Aug'.  9-14. — Com.  Hardy  makes  an  un-  ; 
successful  attack  on  Stonington. 

Aug.  15. — Gen.  Druntrnond,  m command 
of  5,000  British,  made  an  assault  on  Fort  Erie,  j

men. 

Aug.  34.— Battle  of  Bladensburg.  Cap- 
ture of  Washington,  burning  of  the  White  | 
House,  and  other  public  and  pidvate  buildings.  ' 
Ross,  the  British  commander,  first  attacked  j 
Gen.  Winder  and  Corn.  Barney  at  Bladensburg,

struction there,  and  retreated  to  his  shipping 
on  the  29th  of  August.  In  these  exploits  the

tion, was  almost  1,000  men;  that  of  the  Ameri- 
cans, about  100  killed  and  wounded,  and  20

proached, but  returned  to  the  city  when  the  con- 
flict began,  and  narrowly  escaped  capture.

British,  14,000  strong,  in  command  of  Prevost, 
marched  to  Phitsburg,  where,  in  conjunction 
with  the  navy,  a battle  ensued.  The  Ameri- 
cans, 1,500  strong,  commanded  by  Gen.  Ma- 
comb, and  a large  body  of  militia,  under  CJen. 
Mooers,  retired  to  the  south  side  of  the  Sara- 
nac. The  land  forces  fought  until  dark,  and 
every  attempt  of  the  British  to  cross  the  Sara- 
nac was  bravely  resisted.  In  the  evening, 
Prevost  retreated,  leaving  his  sick  and  wound- 
ed, and  a large  quantity  of  military  stores,  be- 
hind him.  The  British  loss,  from  the  Gth  to 
the  11th  of  September,  in  killed,  wounded,  and 
deserted,  was  about  2,500  5 that  of  the  Ameri- 
cans, 121. 

Sept.  11.  — McDonough’s  victory  on  Lake

cans lost  in  killed  and  wounded  110;  the  Brit-

Sept.  13. — The  British  make  an  unsuccess- 
ful attack  on  Baltimore,  were  Gen.  Smith  wavs 
in  command.  Ross,  with  8,000  British  troops, 
was  pressing  forward,  when  he  was  met  by 
Gen.  Strieker;  a slight  skirmish  ensues,  in 
which  Gen.  Ross  is  killed.  He  is  succeeded  in 
command  by  Col.  Brooke.  A battle  now  com- 
menced, which  lasted  an  hour  and  a quarter, 
when  the  Americans  fell  back  towards  the  city. 
Both  parties  slept  on  their  arms  that  night. 
On  the  following  morning  the  British  advanced 
as  if  to  attack  the  city.  In  the  meantime  a 
bombardment  had  been  kept  upon  the  fort, 
whose  garrison,  under  command  of  Major 
Armisted,  made  a gallant  defense.  No  less 
than  1,500  shells  were  thrown.  On  the  morn- 
ing of  the  14th  the  British  re-embarked,  and 
silently  withdrew  from  the  city.  It  is  estima- 
ted that  the  enemy  lost  between  six  and  seven 
hundred  in  these  engagements.

Poughkeepsie  Female  Academy, 

jkEY.  p.  p.  ^I^IGHT,  p.  J.  p.,  pECTOiy. 

This  School  is  ill  the  beafiitiful  citj'  of  Poughkeepsie,  midway  between  Albany  and  New  York. 
For  ease  of  access,  by  railr  ad  and  steamboat;  for  bealtbfulness  of  climate,  both  in  Summer  and  Winter; 
for  literary  and  refined  society,  and  numerous  educational,  moral  and  religious  institutions,  the  location  is 
unsurpassed  in  this  country. 

The  Buildings  are  ample  and  commodious.  The  rooms  are  large,  well  ventilated,  lighted  by  gas, 
and  furnished  with  regard  to  taste,  convenience  and  comfort.  In  the  Laboratory  is  an  extensive  Philosophy 
ical  and  Chemical  apparatus.  A spacious  Gymnasium,  properly  furnished,  is  connected  with  the  other 
buildings. 

The  Course  of  Studies  is  arranged  in  two  Departments— Academic  and  Collegiate.  In  the 
former  pupils  attend  to  Spelling,  Reading,  Writing,  Arithmetic,  Geography,  Grammar,  History  of  the  United 
States,  Map  Drawing  and  Composition.  In  the  latter  the  course  is  designed  for  four  years,  and  embraces 
Ancient  and  Modern  History,  Rhetoric,  the  Higher  Mathematics,  the  Natural  Sciences,  Mental  and  Moral 
Philosophy,  Logic,  English  Literature,  Karnes’  Elements  of  Criticism,  Butler’s  Analogy,  the  Fine  Arts,  and 
the  Literature  of  the  French,  German  and  Latin  Languages.  The  completion  of  this  Course,  or  its  equiva- 
lent, entitles  the  student  to  a Diploma. 

In  both  Academic  and  Collegiate  Departments  much  attention  is  given  to  Composition,  Elocution  and 
Penmanship. 

languages.— An  accomplished  English  education,  as  it  is  of  the  first  importance,  is  here  given  the 
preference;  but  when  pupils  are  sufficiently  advanced  they  are  urged  to  enrich  their  minds  with  the  trea- 
sures of  the  Latin  tongue;  also,  the  German  and  French.  The  latter  is  in  charge  of  a French  gentleman  of 
rare  accomplishments  and  many  years'  experience;  who  not  only  devotes  the  most  of  his  time  to  pupils  in 
the  class-room,  but  meets  them  daily  at  table  and  in  social  intercourse.  German  is  also  taught  by  a native 
Teacher. 

Music. — In  this  Department, — both  instrumental  and  vocal, — as  in  every  other, — there  is  nothing  su- 
perficial; the  aim  being  to  impart  a thorough  knowledge  of  the  science.  A study  of  the  old  masters,  as  well 
as  the  most  classical  composers  of  moderktimes,  is  contiuually  inculcated  upon  the  more  advanced  pupils, 
for  the  developmen  t of  a scholarly  taste. 

Parents  desirous  of  having  their  Daughters  enter  the  Collegiate  Department  of  Vassar  College  will 
here  find  every  facility  for  a thorough  preparation.  Reference  is  made  to  President  Raymond  respecting 
the  qualifications  of  those  who  have  gone  to  that  institution  from  the  Academy. 

DOMESTIC  DEPARTMENT. 

Careful  attention  is  paid  by  Mrs.  Wright  to  the  health  of  pupils;  and,  as  Matron,  she  endeavors  to 
act  a mother’s  part  towards  those  entrusted  to  her  care.  The  table  is  alwa3"s  plentiful!}’'  supplied  with  the 
BEST  the  market  affords;  and  every  effort  is  made  to  make  this  not  only  a first-class  school,  but  also  a 
pleasant,  happy  home  for  girls  while  being  trained  for  life’s  work. 

Government  is  parental.  The  manners  and  habits  of  pupils  are  vigilantly  supervised  by  all  who  have 
charge  of  either  Academic  or  Domestic  Departments.  A conscientious  regard  for  right  is  cherished  in  the 
minds  of  the  pupils;  each  one  reporting  daily  her  observance  of  the  rules. 

UNNECESSARY  EXPENSES. 

A large  part  of  the  expenses  of  many  young  ladies  at  school  is  entirely  unnecessary;  and,  what  is 
worse,  decidedly  detrimental  both  to  themselves  and  their  mates,  and  a source  of  great  trouble  to  their 
teachers.  As  to  dress,  we  would  have  our  pupils  “adorn  themselves  with  modest  apparel,”  not  with 
“ gold  or  pearls,  (Jr  costly  array.”  Let  the  whole  school  outfit  be  characterized  by  simplicity,  freedom, 
comfort  and  perfect  neatness.  Good  t.aste  requires  this  ; health  and  the  interests  of  the  institution  require 
it.  School  is  not  the  place  to  exhibit  expensive  dresses  or  frequent  changes. 

For  Terms,  References,  etc.,  address,  THE  RECTOR,  Pouslikeepsie,  N.  Y.

12,000  British,  under  command  of  Gen.  Packen-

batteries,  yet  they  continued  to  advance  until  | 
Avithin  rifle  range,  Avhen  volley  after  volley  of

British  army  fled  in  dismay,  leaving  700  dead, 
and  more  than  1,000  Avounded  on  the  field.  The

4. — John  Quincy  Adams  inaugur- 
ated Ih’esident. 

Civil  war  threatened  in  Georgia.  The  Fed- 
eral Government,  in  consideration  of  Geoi-gia 
releasing  her  claims  to  portions  of  the  Missis- 
sippi territory,  agreed  to  pui-chase  for  that 
State  Indian  iands  within  the  borders  of  Geor- 
gia. The  Indians  refused  to  sell  their  lands, 
and  the  Government  of  Georgia  was  about  to 
drive  them  out,  when  the  Federal  Government 
interfered  on  behalf  of  the  Indians.  The  In- 
dians finally  removed  to  the  wilderness  of  Mis- 
sissippi. 

Napoleon  Lucien  Charles,  nephew  of  Na- 
poleon I.,  came  to  America  and  married  a Yan- 
kee school-mistress.  He  went  to  France  in 
1848,  and  receieved  the  title  of  Prince  of  the 
Imperial  Family. 

Erie  Canal  completed.  It  was  one  of  the 
most  stupendous  important  public  improve- 
ments, at  that  time,  ever  undertaken  in  the 
United  States.

1826. 

Anti-Mason  party  and  ]\Iorgan  execitement. 
William  Morgan,  of  Western  New  York,  an- 
nouced  his  intention  to  publish  a book,  in 
which  the  secrets  of  Masonry  were  to  be  dis- 
closed. He  was  suddenly  seized  at  Canan- 
daigua, one  evening,  placed  in  a carriage,  and 
was  never  heard  of  afterward.  Some  Free 
]\Iasons  were  charged  with  his  murdei*,  and 
the  report  of  an  investigating  committee  ap- 
pointed by  the  Legislature  of  Yew  York  con- 
firmed the  suspicion.  An  Anti-Mason  party 
was  formed,  and  in  1831  an  Anti-Masonic  con- 
vention was  held  in  Philadelphia,  which  nom- 
inated William  Wirt,  of  Virginia,  for  Presi- 
dent of  the  United  States.  Although  the 
party  polled  a large  vote,  it  soon  afterward 
disappeared. 

125. — American  Temperance  Society 
instituted  at  Boston. 

•filly  4 . — Death  of  John  Adams  and 
Thomas  .Tefferson,  almost  at  the  same  hour. 
They  were  both  members  of  the  committee 
who  had  framed  the  Declaration  of  Independ- 
ence; both  signed  it;  both  had  been  Foreign 
.Ministers;  both  had  been  Vice-Presidents  and 
then  Presidents  of  the  United  States.  To- 
gether with  their  death,  it  was  a singular  coin- 
cidence. 


1827. 

A national  convention  was  held  in  Harris- 
burg, Pa.,  to  discuss  the  subject  of  pi-otective 
tariffs.  Only  four  of  the  slave  States  sent 
delegates.  They  memorialized  Congix'ss  for 
an  increase  of  duties  on  woolen  and  cotton  fab- 
rics.

ixnmced  by  the  Southern  people  as  oppressive 
and  unconstitutional.

For  Hot  or  Cold  Staroh.  — A Great  Disoovery  ! 

OWING  to  an  urgent  demand  for  a laundry  preparation  at  a low  price,  we  have  decided  to  place- 
on  the  market  our  elegant  preparation  at  20  cents  per  bottle.  This  article  is  scientifically 
prepared.  Fully  understanding  the  wants  of  housekeepers,  it  is  entirely  free  from  any  injurious  matter,  and 
contains  no  greasy  substance.  It  prevents  the  iron  from  sticking,  and  a superior  laundry  finish  is  ob- 
tained with  a common  flat  iron,  gives  colored  goods  a look  of  newness,  makes  cotton  look  as  nice  as- 
linen,  and  prevents  mildew. 


Boston,  February  1st,  1878. 

Gents:— Having  used  many  kinds  of  preparation  for  doing-up  linen,  I must  say  that  your  Stakch- 
LENE  far  surpasses  them  all.  It  keeps  the  iron  from  sticking,  and  gives  such  a beautiful  finish  that  it  is  a 
pleasure  to  be  in  the  laundry.  Mrs.  C.  L.  Danforth,  730  Shawmut  Avenue. 

Boston,  February  2,  1878. 

Gents:— Having  given  your  Starchlene  a fair  and  impartial  trial,  I most  cordially  recommend  it  to 
housekeepers  as  the  best  article  for  the  laundry  that  I have  ever  used.  Respectfully  Yours, 

Mrs.  C.  Pierce,  15  So.  Russell  St. 

J^“OUR  NAME  AND  CUT  will  be  on  every  bottle.  Be  sure  that  it  is  marked  “STARCHLENE.”

when  they  arrived  at  the  foot  of  Olney’s  lane, 
about  8 o'’clock  in  the  evening,  they  met  six  or 
seven  steamboat  men,  who  said  they  had  a row 
Avith  the  darkies,  and  asked  the  sailors  to  go 
np  and  aid  them.  This  party,  greatly  increased,

ted States  Bank,  but  on  July  10  Jackson  vetoes 
the  bill,  and  the  charter  expired,  by  limitation^ 
in  1836. 

The  tariff  act  of  1828  produces  discontent 
among  the  Southern  States,  and  South  Caroli- 
na declares  it  null  and  void,  and  threatens  to 
resist  the  collection  of  duties  in  the  port  of 
Charleston  with  arms,  and  secede  from  the 
1 Union  if  the  government  persists  in  enforcing 
! the  law. 

, Ifilsick  Hawk  ’IVar.— After  severq 
j skirmishes  the  Indians  were  driven  from  Illi- 
nois to  beyond  the  Mississippi.  Black  Hawk 
was  captured  and  taken  to  Washington  City, 
and  there  to  impress  his  mind  with  the 
strength  of  the  nation  he  had  foolishly  made 
war  with,  he  was  conducted  through  several  of 
I the  Eastern  States.  This  ended  the  Black  Hawk 
I war.

I to  140,000.  The  ratio  of  deaths  to  cases  was  1

I to  slave  owners  of  nearly  four  million  dol- 
lars. 

l>ec.  lO. — President  Jackson  issues  a 
; proclamation  denying  the  right  of  any  State 
j to  nullify  any  act  of  the  Federal  Government,

the  laws  of  the  United  States  would  be  strictly 
enforced  by  military  power,  if  necessary,  and 
South  Carolina  was  obliged  to  yield.

Cholera  again  rages  in  New  York. 

The  President  sent  General  Wiley  Thompson 
to  Florida  to  prepare  for  a forcible  removal  of 
the  Seminole  Indians  if  necessary.  The  tone 
and  manner  of  Osceola  disjileased  Thompson, 
and  he  put  him  in  irons  and  in  jirison  for  a day. 
The  chief  feigned  jicnitence,  and  was  released, 
but  his  wounded  pride  called  for  revenge,  and

his  friends  who  were  dining  at  a store  a few 
yards  from  Fort  King.  Osceola  scalped  Gen-

Oregon  was  a part  of  the  territory  of  the 
United  States  by  right  of  first  discovery. 

Marcia  6. — Mexican  minister  protests 
against  the  admission  of  Texas  into  the  Union 
and  demanded  his  passport. 

April  1<>. — Great  fire  at  Pittsburgh,  burn- 
ing over  a space  of  56  acres,  entailing  a loss  of 
property  of  over  five  millions  of  dollars. 

*1  itly — The  President,  aware  of  the  hostle 
feelings  of  the  Mexicans,  sent  Gen.  Taylor, 
with  a force  of  1,500,  for  the  defence  of  Texas. 
At  the  same  time  a squadron,  under  com- 
mand of  Commodore  Connor,  sailed  for  the 
Gulf  of  Mexico,  to  protect  American  interests 
there. 

«51uly  ID. — Great  fire  between  Broadway, 
Exchange  place.  Broad  and  Stone  streets.  New 
York.  Loss,  .$5,000,000. 

The  Mexican  government,  by  continued  dep- 
redations upon  American  vessels  and  the  con- 
fiscation of  the  property  of  the  Americans 
within  her  border,  brought  on  a crisis  that  re- 
quired a settlement.  The  United  States  re- 
monstrated, but  the  Mexicans  continued  their 
depredations,  until  the  amount  appropriated 
by  them  reached  more  than  .$6,000,000.  The 
Mexican  government  finally  acknowledged  the 
debt,  and  agreed  to  pay  it  in  installments  of 
$300,000  each.  Only  three  of  the  installments 
were  paid,  and  the  Mexican  government  re- 
fused to  decide  whether  she  would  pay  the  re- 
mainder.

Smith  attacked  the  Mexicans  at  sunrise,  and,

shattered  castle  of  Chapultepec.  The  Mexi- 
cans fled  to  the  city,  jmrsued  by  Gen.  Quit-

Excellency  Abraham  Lincoln  was  assasinated,

knife  or  dagger,  and  exclaimed,  ‘ Sic  semper 
tyrannis ! ’ and  escaped  in  the  rear  of  the  the-

Feneiiil  Hall,  “the  Cradle  of  I.iberty.”-This  Biiiltling  was  presented  to  Boston  by  Pete 
Faneuil.  It  was  erected  in  1742,  destroyed  by  fire  in  1761,  and  immediately  thereafter  was  rebuilt  by  the  vote 
of  the  town.  In  1805  it  was  enlarged  to  its  present  size,  and  until  1822  all  town  meetings  of  Boston  were 
held  within  its  walls.  The  hall  is  76  feet  square  and  28  feet  high.  It  is  never  let  for  money,  but  is  at  the 
disposal  of  the  people,  whenever  a sufficient  number  of  persons,  complying  with  certain  regulations,  ash  to 
have  it  opened.  By  a provision  in  the  charter  of  Boston,  it  is  forbidden  the  sale  or  lease  of  the  hall.

Cost  OF  the  War. — In  the  Union  armies 
probably  300,000  men  were  killed  in  battle, 
or  died  of  wounds  and  disease,  while  doubtless 
two  hundred  thousand  more  were  crippled  for 
life.  If  the  Confederate  armies  suffered  as 
heavily,  the  country  thus  lost  one  million  able- 
bodied  men.  The  Union  debt,  Jan.  1,  1860, 
was  nearly  $2,750,000,000.  At  one  time,  the 
daily  expenses  reached  the  sum  of  $3,500,000. 
During  the  last  year  of  the  war,  the  expenses 
were  greater  than  the  entire  expenditures  of 
the  Government  from  Washington  to  Buch- 
anan. The  Confederate  war  debt  was  never 
paid,  as  that  Government  was  overthrown.

Brattle  Square  Church,  Boston.— Was  first  built  in  1699,  was  taken  down  in  1772,  and  the 
building  just  demolished,  erected  on  the  same  spot,  was  dedicated  on  the  25th  of  Jul}%  1773.  During  the 
Revolution  the  pastor,  who  w as  a patriot,  was  obliged  to  leave  Boston,  services  were  suspended,  and  the 
British  soldiers  used  the  building  as  a barrack.  A cannon  ball  from  a battery  in  Cambridge,  or  from  a ship 
of  war  in  the  Charles  river,  struck  the  church,  and  this  memento  of  the  glorious  contest  was  afterwards 
built  into  the  external  wall  of  the  church,  above  the  porch.  The  old  church  was  sold  in  1871,  and  the  last 
service  w as  held  in  it  July  30th  of  that  year.  The  ancient  pnlpit,  the  organ,  the  old  bell,  the  historic  can- 
non ban,  and  some  other  mementoes,  were  reserved  at  the  sale.  A large  business  block  now  occupies  the 
site  of  the  church.

Po§t  Office,  Bo§toii. — The  corner-stone  was  laid  on  the  16th  of  October,  1871. 
Our  sketch  shows  the  post  office  as  it  is.  It  has  a front  of  over  two  hundred  feet  on 
Devonshire  street,  occupying  the  whole  square  between  Milk  and  Water  streets,  and  it 
is,  sooner  or  later,  to  be  extended  to  Congress  street.  The  government  has  never  before 
owned  the  building  in  which  the  Boston  post  office  was  located.  The  upper  stories  of 
the  new  post  office  are  occupied  by  the  sub-treasury.  The  building  was  completed  and 
occupied  early  in  1875.  The  entire  cost  of  the  government  exceeded  $3,000,000.

City  Hall,  Boston.— TheyCorner-stone  was  laid  on  the  22d  of  December,  1862— the  anniversary  of 
the  landing  of  the  Pilgrims  at  Plymouth.  The  amount  first  appropriated  was  $160,000,  but  before  the 
building  was  occupied  the  actual  cost  was  more  than  half  a million  dollars.  The  building  was  completed 
and  dedicated  on  the  18th  of  September,  1865.  The  tablet  in  the  wall,  back  of  the  first  landing,  perpetuates 
in  beautifully  worked  marble,  the  statement  that  the  dedication  took  place  on  the  17th  of  September. 
This  day  would  have  been  highly  appropriate  for  the  ceremony,  being  the  two-hundredth  and  thirty-fifth 
anniversary  of  the  settlement  of  Boston,  had  it  not  fallen  on  Sunday.  The  ceremony  was  accordingly 
postponed  until  the  following  day. 


This,  one  of  the  oldest  Business  Colleges  in  the 
United  States,  enjoying  as  it  has,  for  twenty-nine 
years,  the  confidence  and  patronage  of  the  merchants 
of  Boston,  continues  to  afford  a more  complete  and 
practical  course  of 

COMMERCIAL  STUDIES 

than  can  be  found  at  any  similar  institution. 

THE  BUSINESS  DEPARTMENT 

provides  every  facility  for  thorough  preparation  for 
the  active  duties  of  the  oflBce,  counting-house  and 
bank;  embracing  most  thorough  drill  in  Penman- 
ship, Business  Arithmetic,  Book-keeping,  Corres- 
pondence, Business  Papers,  Banking,  Business  Law, 

"'"'the  nautical  department 

provides  an  ample  and  practical  course  in  Naviga- 
tion, including  use  of  instruments  and  charts. 

The  fact  that  many  of  Boston’s  merchants  are 
graduates  of  this  College,  and  that  hundreds  of  others 
who  were  here  educated  are  filling  positions  of  honor 
and  emolument  in  almost  every  city  of  the  Union,  is 
a sufficient  guarantee  of  its  standing  and  advantages. 

Evening  Sessions  from  7 to  9. 

Application  for  admission  received  at  the  office 
from  9 A.  M.  to  4 P.  M. ; 7 to  9 evenings.

The  Home  of  Wasliiiig^toii’§  Aiieestor§. — The  Manor  House,  Sulgrave, 
Northamptonshire,  which  was  held  of  the  Priory  of  St.  Andrew,  was  surrendered  to 
the  Crown  upon  the  dissolution  of  the  monasteries,  and  in  the  30th  of  Henry  VIII. 
(1529)  it  was  granted  to  Lawrence  Washington,  gent,  of  Northampton.  Robert  Wash- 
ington, his  son  and  heir,  conjointly  with  his  eldest  son,  Lawrence,  sold  the  manor  in 
1610  to  Lawrence  Makepeace,  gent,  of  the  Inner  Temple,  London.  Lawrence  Wash- 
ington, after  the  sale  of  his  estate,  retired  to  Brington,  where  he  died,  and  his  second 
son,  John  Washington,  emigrated  to  America  about  the  middle  of  the  17th  century,  and 
was  grandfather  of  the  great  American  patriot  and  father  of  his  country,  George

FOR  YOUR  GOUGH;  THEY  WILL  CURE  IT. 


Use  SLIPPERY  ELM  LOZENGES  if  you  are  Hoarse  ! they  will  restore  your  voice. 

Use  SLIPPERY  ELM  LOZENGES  for  all  Throat  Affections. 

In  calling  your  attention  to  Slippery  Elm  Lozenges,  we  hope  you  will  indulge  us  to  the  extent  of  read- 
ing this  Circular,  and  in  reading,  believe,  and  in  believing,  we  sincerely  hope  you  will  try  Slippery  Elm 
Lozenges.  After  once  trying  them,  we  do  not  doubt  that  you  will  endorse  and  adopt  them  as  your  family 
medicine  for  all  afflictions  for  which  they  are  intended,  such  as  Coughs,  Colds,  Hoarseness,  Loss  of  Voice, 
Inffammation  and  Irritation  of  the  Throat  and  Larynx,  Bronchitis,  Pulmonary  Catarrh,  Canker,  Difficult 
Expectoration,  and  all  direct  or  indirect  affections  of  the  throat.  Consumptives  will  find  them  a grateful 
palliative,  soothing  and  healing,  and  in  that  way  a great  help  to  the  action  of  the  more  positive  medicines 
which  their  physicians  prescribe.  Their  use  will  not  interfere  with  any  diet  or  medicine.  When  you  are 
troubled  with  any  of  the  above-named  difficulties,  be  sure  and  use  them  freely.  When  traveling,  going  to 
church,  the  concert  or  lecture  room,  don’t  fail  to  have  them  with  you,  and  then  and  there  use  them,  for  the 
relief  it  will  afford  yourself  and  others.  Always  have  them  by  your  bedside.  Two  or  three  Lozenges  when 
you  retire  will  stop  your  Cough,  and  you  will  have  a quiet  and  natural  rest.  The  effect  of  them  will  aston- 
ish you,  so  harmless  and  simple  in  their  nature,  and  yet  so  sure  to  afford  relief.  ESPECIALLY  ARE 
THEY  ADAPTED  TO  CHILDREN!  Don’t  forget  that. 

Your  little  ones  should  be  cared  for  anxiously;  they  are  subject  to  a thousand  ills,  and  need  constant 
watching.  In  a majority  of  their  ailments.  Slippery  Elm  Lozenges  you  will  find  the  most  admirable  thing 
you  can  give  them.  Don’t  dose  them  to  sickness  and  death  with  Squills,  Ipecac,  Antimonials,  Bloodroot, 
Lobelia  or  Opiates,  unless  they  are  sick  enough  to  need  your  family  physician;  but  instead,  give  them  Slip- 
pery Elm  Lozenges  in  abundance.  Don’t  be  afraid  of  them;  they  contain  no  Opiates,  Narcotics,  Sedatives 
or  Anodynes— they  are  simply  demulcent  and  nutritions,  and  through  these  mediums  wonderfully  curative. 

In  conclusion,  we  will  say  that  we  earnestly  hope  that  all  public  speakers,  ministers,  lecturers,  senators, 
representatives,  actors,  singers,  auctioneers,  salesmen,  and  all  persons  whose  calling  in  life  requires  ar  con- 
stant tax  upon  the  voice,  will  give  Slippery  Elm  Lozenges  a faithful  and  thorough  trial.  By  doing  so  they 
will  confer  a great  favor  upon  themselves,  and  render  to  us  a just  and  deserved  tribute  for  our  enterprise.

iDaniel  Louis’  Patent 


WASH  MACHINE 

Patented  December  28,  1875. 

PRICE,  - - $14.00. 


The  undersigned  begs  leave  to  call  the 
attention  of  the  public  to  his  “ Patent 
Wash  Machine,”  which,  on  account  of  its 

Durability  and  Great  Sim- 
plicity of  Construction 

gives  general  satisfaction.  It  is  an  ex- 
cellent washer,  is  easy  to  work,  and  will 
not  injure  the  finest  fabrics. 

With  the  improvement  lately  made  to 
it,  I can  recommend  it  as  the  best 
machine  which  has  ever  been  brought  be- 
fore the  public. 

Having  improved  the  Patent  Wash 
Machine  so  as  to  attach  a wringer,  it  will 
be  necessary  for  persons  ordering  a ma- 
chine to  state  what  kind  of  a wringer  they 
are  using,  so  as  to  make  the  wringer  fit 
the  machine.

“ In  Burr’s  Improved  Nursing  Bottle,  all  objec- 
tions have  been  successfully  overcome.” 

Burr’s  Nursing  Bottles  have  been  recommended 
and  indorsed  by  all  the  leading  Physicians  and 
Druggists  for  the  past  ten  years.  They  are  made  of 
the  very  best  and  purest  materials,  and  by  the 
most  skillful  workmen. 

Nursiiif?  Bottles  and  tubes  should  be  tboroufrhly 
cleansed  immediately  after  using’.  This  is  of  the  great- 
est importance,  as  the  life  of  the  infant  de])endsupon  it. 

It  is  almost  mii)ossible  to  get  at  the  tube  of  the  imita- 
tion Nursing  Bottles,  in  order  to  clean  them. 

In  the  genuine  Burr’s  Impkovku  Nuksino  Bottlk, 
the  nipple  holder,  tube  connector,  and  mouth  guard,  are 
all  iNGi;NiouSLY  CO.MBIXEI)  in  one  piece  of  hard  ijolished 
wood.  It  is  so  constructed  that  the  nii)i)les  are  vei-y 
firmly  held,  yet  they  can  be  easily  taken  off  for  cleaning 
the  tube,  and  replaced  in  an  instant. 

Avoid  all  nursing  bottles,  where  the  nipple  holder, 
mouth  guard,  and  tube  connector  are  of  metal,  or  in 
MORr:  THAN  ONE  PIECE.  The  genuine  Burr’s  Improved 
Nursing  Bottles  are  made  in  ought  different  styles,  and 
retail  at  from  twenty-five  to  seventy-five  cents.  See 
that  the  Patent  Stamps  are  on  the  mouth  guard  and

and  attack  the  enemy  in  the  rear.  On  the

port, he  attacked  the  enemy.  He  had  twelve

nies had  been  detached  under  Colonel  Reno  to 
make  an  attack  from  the  other  side  upon  the 
enemy.  Gen.  Custer’s  force  was  overpowered

mand escaped.  Col.  Reno’s  force  was  sur- 
rounded and  sustained  severe  losses,  but  was 
finally  rescued  by  Gen.  Gibbon’s  command.

IMPORTANT  EVENTS  OF  THE  CENTURY. 


1876. 

I>ec.  4.  — The  bust  of  Horace  Greeley,  the 
philosopher  and  founder  of  the  New  York 
Tribune,  presented  to  the  friends  of  the  de- 
ceased by  the  American  printers  and  journal- 
ists, was  unveiled  at  Greenwood  Cemetery, 
New  York,  in  the  presence  of  about  1,000  peo- 
ple. 

l>ec.  — Brooklyn  Theatre,  Brooklyn,  N. 
Y.,  destroyed  by  fire.  This  was  one  of  the 
most  terrible  and  fatal  calamities  that  has  ever 
occurred  in  the  United  States— far  exceeding 
in  horrors  that  of  the  burning  of  the  Rich- 
inon(Va.)  Theatre,  Dec.  27,  1811  (see  page 
65).  Over  three  hundred  and  fifty  lives  were 
lost,  burned  and  buried  in  the  ruins,  disfigured 

so  much  that  but  few  were  i. condition  to  be 

recognized,  so  completely  charred  and  burned 
as  to  be  impossible  to  tell  whether  they  were 
male  or  female,  human  or  animal.  Many  per- 
sons were  seriousiy  injured  in  their  efforts  to 
escape  from  the  flames  by  jumping  out  of  the 
windows,  ana  some  were  killed  outright.  Oth- 
ers were  crushed  and  mangled  by  the  mad 
rush  of  human  beings  seeking  egress  from  the 
theater  by  the  main  outlet  on  Washington 
street.  Of  the  actors,  two  lost  their  lives — 
Harry  S.  Murdock  and  Claude  Burroughs. 
The  play  was  the  Ttoo  Orphans,  with  Miss 
Claxton  as  the  heroine;  and  the  fire  occurred 
in  the  last  act,  and  in  five  minutes  more  the 
play  would  have  been  concluded  and  the  audi- 
ence dismissed.  The  fire  originated  from  a 
piece  of  canvass,  out  of  which  trees  are  made, 
Avhich  broke  from  its  fastenings  and  fell  over 
the  border  lights  near  the  center  of  the  stage. 
The  curtain  was  then  lowered,  took  fire  and 
communicated  the  flames  to  the  gallery,  where 
the  scene  of  alarm  was  something  horrible  to 
contemplate.  There  were  405  persons  in  the 
gallery;  and,  in  the  theatre  altogether,  includ- 
ing musicians,  actors,  suboi’dinates,  etc.,  about 
1,050  persons. 

l>ec.  5. — First  cremation  in  the  United 
States  was  performed  at  Washington,  Pa.  It 
was  the  body  of  Baron  De  Palm,  who  was  born 
in  Augsburg,  Southern  Germany,  in  the  year 
1809. 

I>eceiiil>er  12. — Ice  broke  on  the 
Mississippi  river  in  front  of  St.  Louis,  sink- 
ing four  vessels  of  the  Keokuk  Packet 
Line  and  three  others,  besides  inflicting 
great  injury  to  other  vessels.  Loss  sup- 
posed to  be  $200,000. 

Dec.  14. — Destructive  Are  at  Little 
Eock,  Arkansas.  Loss,  $200,000. 

Dec.  29. — Terrible  railroad  accident 
at  Ashtnbula,  Ohio,  over  100  lives  lost.  As 
the  passenger  train  on  the  Lake  Shore  rail- 
road was  crossing  the  iron  bridge  at  Ashta- 
bula about  8 A.  M, , the  bridge  gave  way. 
precipitating  the  cars  down  a frightful 
chasm  sixty  feet  deep  into  the  water  and 
ice.  Men,  women  and  children  lost  their 
lives  by  being  crushed,  burned  and 
drowned  ; and  out  of  185  passengers  and 
employees  but  seventy  were  known  to  have 
been  saved.  There  is  no  cause  assigned 
for  the  breaking  of  the  bridge  unless  from 
the  effects  of  the  extreme  cold.

IMPORTANT  EVENTS  OF  THE  CENTURY. 


1877. 

pired  this  year,  reducing  the  price  of  these 
machines  to  about  one-half  their  original 
cost. 

The  last  of  the  troops  that  were  left  in 
the  South,  the  result  of  the  rebellion,  were 
withdrawn  this  year  from  all  the  Southern 
States,  and  thus,  virtually,  these  States  be- 
came free  for  the  first  time  since  the  re- 
bellion. 

Jan.  4. — Cornelius  Vanderbilt  died  at 
his  residence  in  New  York  city,  aged  83 
years.  He  was  the  richest  man  in  the 
United  States,  his  wealth  being  estimated 
at  $80,000,000.  He  commenced  life  a poor 
boy  and  w-Tked  himself  up  to  his  great 
wealth  by  personal  exertions.  At  the  age 
of  forty  he  commenced  dealing  extensive- 
ly in  Railroad  stocks,  and  in  1849  he  was 
known  as  Commodore  Vanderbilt,  on  ac- 
count of  the  great  number  of  steamboat 
lines  owned  by  him.  At  the  time  of  his 
deith  he  owned  so  much  exclusively  Rail- 
road stock  as  to  be  denominated  the  King 
of  Railroads. 

Jan.  17. — House  of  Representatives 
ordered  the  arrest  of  the  Louisiana  Return- 
ing Board  for  refusing  to  furnish  papers 
to  the  investigating  committee  in  relation 
to  the  Presidental  election  in  Louisiana. 

Jan,  1§. — The  Congressional  joint 
committe  reported  to  both  Houses,  in  the 
shape  of  a bill,  a plan  for  counting  the  elec- 
toral vote.  It  makes  the  function  of  the 
President  of  the  St-nate  purely  ministerial, 
and  the  two  kinds  of  objections  likely  to 
be  raised  when  the  certificates  are  opened 
are  to  be  settled  as  follows  : First,  when 
only  one  set  of  returns  is  presented  from  a 
Stale,  any  objection  to  their  reception  must 
be  sustained  by  the  concurrent  vote  of  both 
Houses.  Failing  this,  sfieh  retiirn  must  be 
counted  as  the  vote  of  the  State.  When 
two  sets  are  presented,  they  are  to  be  im- 
mediately referred  to  a commission  com- 
jjosed  of  five  Senators,  five  members  of  the 
House,  and  four  of  the  associate  Justices  of 
of  the  Supreme  Court,  whose  names  are 
given — and  one  other  Justice  selected  by 
these  four.  The  decision  of  this  tribunal 
of  fifb-en  is  to  be  submitted  to  the  two 
Houses  assembled  in  joint  session,  and  is 
to  be  final,  unless  both  Houses  agree  to 
reject  it. 

Jan.  25. — Senate  passed  the  Electoral 
Bill.  Yeas,  47  ; nays,  17. 

Jan.  26. — The  House  passed  the  Elec- 
toral Bill  by  a vote  of  191  to  96. 

Jan.  27. — Academy  of  Music  of  In- 
dianapolis, Ind. , destroyed  by  fire,  involv- 
ing a loss  of  nearly  $100,000. 

Jan.  29. — President  signed  the  Elec- 
toral Bill.  The  President  gave  the  follow- 
ing reasons  for  signing  the  bill  ; The 
country  is  agitated  : it  needs  aid  ; it  de- 
sires peace  and  quiet  and  harmony  be- 
tween all  parties  and  sections.  Its  indus-

3IRS.  M,  a 3IAITLAND,  Proprietress, 

The  most  scientific,  safest  and  most  successful  known  to  any  class  of  the  medical  profes" 
sion  is  the  PHYSIO-MEDICAL  PRACTICE.  Physio,  signifying  natural,  a prefix  to  medical,  to  dis- 
tinguish it  from  Allopathy,  Homoeopathy,  and  all  other  systems  that  use  poisons  to  cure  disease. 

DR.  SCOTT,  Physio-Medical  Physician,  strictly  adheres  to  the  scientific  principles  taught  in  Phj^sio- 
Medical  Colleges  with  which  he  has  long  been  thoroughly  familiar,  and  had  much  experience  in  their 
application;  also,  can  give  reliable  references  of  extraordinary  success  in  severe  cases.  While  commend- 
ing this  practice  for  diseases  of  adults,  he  particularly  invites  the  attention  of  parents  to  its  unequalled 
success  in  Scarlatina,  Diptheria,  and  all  diseases  of  children.  Its  remedies  are  harmless  to  the  organism, 
while  they  are  the  most  effectual  known  to  the  profession.  Th'Ir  seasonable  and  judicious  use  rarely  fails 
of  success— never  in  curable  cases.  Office,  171  Westminster  St.,  Providence,  R.  I.

Lee,  Mormon  bishop,  convicted  of  being 
the  main  instigator  in  the  Mountain  Mea- 
dows massacre  in  1857.  This  massacre 
wa'^  one  of  the  most  atrocious  fanatical  re- 
ligious murders  of  the  last  thousand  years. 
One  hundred  and  fifty  men,  women  and 
children  were  assaulted,  and  all,  save  sev- 
enteen infant  children,  were  murdered. 
Lee  was  shot  to  deaih  by  a file  of  United 
States  soldiers,  on  the  same  spot  where  the 
massacre  was  committed.  Lee’s  allies  were 
Mormons  and  Indians. 

April  2. — The  Southwestern  portion 
of  Chicago  was  covered  with  water  to  the 
extent  of  nearly  seven  miles  square.  In

way  in  boats. 

April  11. — The  Southern  Hotel,  one 
of  the  largest  and  finest  in  St.  Louis,  de- 
stroyed by  fire.  The  fire  broke  out  shortly 
before  two  o’clock,  and  spread  with  such 
rapidity  that  in  less  than  an  hour  the  en- 
tire building  was  in  ruins.  The  guests 
rushed  from  their  beds  frantically,  but 
many  were  driven  back  to  their  rooms  by 
the  dense  smoke  which  filled  the  hallways. 
Some  were  rescued  by  means  of  ropes  and 
ladders,  but  others,  becoming  desperate, 
leaped  from  the  upper  windows  and  were 
instantly  killed,  or  so  badly  mangled,  that 
death  resulted  soon  after.  The  number 
who  lost  their  lives  was  fourteen.  The 
loss  will  probably  reach  $750,000.

Permanent  Exhibition  at  Philadelphia,

destroyed  by  a Tornado,  over  200  persons 
were  killed  and  nearly  200  wounded,  over 
half  a million  dollars,  worth  of  property 
destroyed. 

June  14. — The  bridge  across  the  Con- 
necti(;ut  River  between  Northampton  and 
Hadley,  Mass. , was  blown  down  by  a hur 
ricane.  Fifteen  persons  who  had  taken 
shelter  there,  and  a number  of  teams,  went 
down  in  the  ruins. 

June  20. — St.  John,  N.  B.,  nearly 
destroyed  by  fire,  the  main  portion  of  the 
city  burned,  all  the  public  buildings  and 
business  houses  destroyed.  15,000  people 
homeless,  no  household  effects  were  saved. 
500  acres  Avas  burned  over.  Many  lives 
were  lost.  Intense  suffering  among  the 
people.  Loss  about  $20,000,000.

Ohio  Railroad  at  Baltimore,  Md.,  and  Mar- 
tinsburg,  Ya.,  struck  on  account  of  reduc- 
tion of  wages. 

July  17  , — The  railroad  strikers  at 
Martinsburg,  Ya.,  attacked  and  tired  on  a. 
train.  The  troops  returned  the  tire,  kill- 
ing one  of  the  rioters  and  wounding  sev- 
eral. 

July  1§  . — At  the  request  of  the  Gov- 
ernor of  West  Virginia,  President  Hayes 
ordered  Federal  troops  to  Martinsburg,  Ya.,, 
to  quell  the  railroad  riot. 

July  20. — The  strikes  on  the  Balti- 
more and  Ohio  and  Pennsylvania  Rail- 
roads continue,  and  a strike  took  place  oru 
the  Erie  Railway,  stopping  all  trains,  A 
riot  occurred  at  Baltimore,  and  the  Sixth 
Maryland  Regiment  fired  info  the  crowd,, 
killing  nine  and  wounding  between  forty 
and  fifty.  Troops  were  also  called  out  iuj 
Pennsylvania  and  Ohio. 

July  21. — A conflict  occurred  at 
Pittsburg,  Pa.,  between  railroad  strikers 
and  the  military,  during  which  a number 
of  persons  were  killed,  including  Sheriff 
Fife,  and  many  wounded,  among  the  num- 
ber being  General  Pearson,  The  mob 
sacked  all  the  leading  gun  stores,  and  late 
at  night  attacked  the  soldiers  from  Phila- 
delphia who  had  been  compelled  to  take- 
refuge  in  the  Round  House  at  the  outer 
depot  of  the  Pennsylvania  Railroad.  An- 
other riot  also  took  place  at  Baltimore, 
Md.,  but  no  one  was  killed.  President 
Hayes  issued  a proclamation,  ordering  all 
those  engaged  in  these  unlawful  proceed- 
ings to  desist  and  retire  to  their  homes  by 
12  o’clock  noon  of  the  22d. 

July  22. — The  railroad  strikers  con- 
tinue their  riotous  work  at  Pittsburg. 
Early  in  the  morning  the  mob  set  fire  to- 
and  completely  destroyed  the  Round  House- 
of  the  Pennsylvania  Railroad  Company,, 
together  with  125  first-class  locomotives 
housed  there,  hundreds  of  loaded  freight 
cars,  and  other  property,  aggregating  ii> 
value,  according  to  a rough  estimate, 
$3,000,000.  The  troops,  who  had  been 
penned  up  m the  Round  House  all  night, 
were  forced  to  attempt  escape  when  the 
building  was  fired,  and  as  they  marched 
out  hastily  they  were  attacked  by  the  strik- 
ers, who  followed  them  as  they  double- 
quicked  toward  the  Arsenal,  firing  shots 
and  hurling  all  sorts  of  missiles  at  the  sol- 
diers, many  of  whom  were  badly  hurt  and 
others  shot  down  and  left  in  tlie  streets. 
Once  the  military  turned  and  fired  inta 
their  pursuers,  twenty  or  more  persons 
being  killed  by  the  discharge.  The  com- 
mandant at  the  Arsenal  refused  to  allow 
the  troops  admission,  saying  that  he  had 
but  twenty  men  with  him,  and  if  he  al- 
lowed them  to  enter  he  could  not  protect 
the  place  against  the  mob.  They  then 
hurried  on  to  the  bridge  over  the  Aileghc-

IMPORTANT  EVENTS  OF  THE  CP:N'rURY. 


1877. 

iiy  at  Sharpsbiirg,  after  crossing  which 
they  separated  in  squa  ls  and  took  to  the 
wooas.  The  civil  authorities  were  totally 
powerless,  and  thieves,  who  took  advan- 
tage of  the  reign  of  terror,  broke  open  and 
plundered  the  cars,  and  caiTied  off  the 
stolen  goods  with  perfect  impunity.  The 
strike  in  Philadelphia  was  inaugurated  at 
6 o’clock  p.  M.,  by  the  men  abandoning 
their  places.  Trouble  occurred  at  Hor- 
nellsville,  N.  Y.,  on  the  Erie  road,  the 
strikers  preventing  trains  departing. 

July  23. — A mob  of  Erie  Railroad 
men  and  canal  men  drove  the  men  out  of 
the  New  York  Central  s lock-yards  at  Buf- 
falo, N.  Y.,  and  prevented  freight  trains 
from  going  out.  No  one  was  injured.  All 
trains  were  abandoned  on  the  Cleveland 
and  Pittsburg  Railroad,  and  the  same  was 
the  case  with  the  freight  trains  on  the  Lake 
Shore  and  Southern  Michigan  road.  The 
Vandalia  Railroad  men  at  Indianapolis, 
Ind.,  stiuck,  as  did  also  the  Niagara  divi- 
sion of  the  Erie  Road  employes.  Trains 
resumed  running  at  Baltimore,  and  the 
excitement  was  subsiding.  The  Twenty- 
third  Regiment  arrived  at  Hornellsville, 

N.  Y.,  where  all  was  reported  quiet.  The 
New  York  Central  men  struck,  and  all 
freight  trains  were  stopped.  The  esti- 
mated number  of  killed  and  wounded  at 
Pittsburg  was,  killed,  54;  wounded,  109 — 
163.  A vigilance  committee  was  organized 
at  Pittsburg,  for  the  protection  of  property. 
The  trainsmen  on  the  Eastern  roads  run- 
ning out  of  St.  Louis  also  struck.  At 
Reading,  Pa.,  troops  fired  upon  rioters 
who  were  engaged  in  tearing  up  tracks,  at 
least  seven  persons  being  killed  and  over 
thirty  wounded.  At  Buffalo,  N.  Y.,  the 
strikers  drove  away  about  two  hundred 
soldiers,  a number  of  whom  were  pretty 
roughly  handled.  Citizens’  organizations 
maintained  order  at  Pittsburg,  and  quiet 
prevailed  at  Baltimore,  Md.,  and  Hornells- 
ville, N.  Y. 

July  21.  — Additional  strikes  took 
place  in  Ohio,  Illinois,  Pennsylvania,  and 
New^  York;  the  New  York  Central,  Dela- 
ware and  Lackawanna,  and  all  the  roads  , 
centering  at  Chicago,  111.,  being  among  ! 
the  number.  Vigilance  committees  and  j 
large  bodies  of  police  were  organized  in  i 
different  cities  and  towns  of  Pennsylvania, 
Ohio,  and  other  States,  which  action  had  ] 
great  effect  in  restoring  order. 

July  25. — The  strikers  were  joined  by 
the  Central  New  Jersey,  Lehigh  Valley, 
and  the  Texas  Pacific  freight  men.  Con- 
flicts between  the  mob  and  police  took 
place  in  Chicago,  St.  Louis,  and  San  Fran- 
cisco; one  man  being  shot  and  another 
dangerously  wounded  at  the  fiist-named 
place.  President  Hayes  ordered  to  Balti- 
more and  Louisville  nearly  all  the  troops 
in  the  South.  The  Erie  strikers  at  Hor- 
nellsville, N.  Y.,  surrendered  to  the  rail-

Y.,  agreed  to  gc  to  work  until  siicli  time 
as  a conference  could  be  had  with  Mr. 
Yanderbilt. 

July  26.— Rioting  took  place  in  Chica- 
go, 111.,  the  police  and  troops  fighting  the 
mob  nearly  all  day.  Fifteen  I’crsons  were 
known  lo  have  been  killed,  and  many 
wounded.  Many  of  the  rioters  were  ar- 
rested. Disturbance  also  took  place  at  St, 
Louis,  but  no  one  was  reported  injured. 
Trains  began  running  on  the  Erie  Rail- 
way, the  Delaware,  Lackawanna  and  Great 
Western,  Morris  and  Essex,  and  the  Amer- 
ican Division  of  the  Canada  Southern 
Railroad.  At  San  Francisco,  incendiary 
fires  were  started  by  the  rioters,  but  strong 
bodies  of  vigilants  prevented  the  contem- 
plated depredations  or  serious  trouble.  In 
Philadelphia,  the  police,  in  breaking  up  a 
disorderly  meeting,  became  involved  in  a 
fight,  which  was  desperately  waged,  a 
number  of  persons  being  badly  hurt,  and 
one  boy,  aged  about  17,  killed. 

July  28. — Under  the  protection  of 
troops,  seven  freight  trains  were  sent 
away  from  Baltimore,  and  about  500  cars 
from  Cumberland  over  the  Baltimore 
and  Ohio  road.  Governor  Hartranft  and 
Staff,  with  about  4,000  United  States  troops 
and  militia — infantry,  cavalry,  and  artil- 
lery— arrived  at  Pittsburg  and  took  peace- 
able possession  of  the  Pennsylvania  Com- 
pany’s territory  there.  At  Johnstown  a 
mob  assailed  the  trains  with  missiles, 
some  of  which  inflicted  severe  wounds. 
They  likewise  threw  a train  from  the 
track,  wrecking  five  cars,  but  fortunately 
not  seriously  injuring  any  one,  A re- 
vised list  put  the  number  of  killed  during 
the  rioting  in  Chicago  at  twenty-one; 
wounded,  about  ninety,  six  of  whom  will 
probably  die.  One  of  the  killed  and  elev- 
en of  the  wounded  were  policemen.  The 
authorities  had  the  mob  under  control  at 
St.  Louis.  The  strikers  at  Fort  Wayne, 
Ind.,  overpowered  the  authorities  in  two 
attempts  to  move  trains  on  the  Pittsburg, 
Fort  Wayne,  and  Chicago  road. 

July  29. — The  seven  freight  trains 
which  were  sent  westward  from  Baltimore, 
Md. , were  stopped  by  strikers  at  Keyser, 
West  Va.,  one  of  them  being  partially 
wrecked.  Another  attempt  to  move  an  en- 
gine out  of  the  yard  at  Fort  Wayne,  Ind., 
was  frustrated.  A compromise  with  tlie 
fireman  and  brakemen  on  the  Pittsburg, 
Fort  Wayne  and  Chicago  road  was  par- 
tially effected.  Troops  were  concentrating 
at  East  St.  Louis,  111., in  anticipation  of  an 
attack  upon  the  bridge,  and  General  Bates 
had  caused  the  arrest  of  sixty-five  strikers, 
who  attempted  to  prevent  a passenger  train 
from  going  out;  trains  were  sent  out  on  all 
the  roads  except  the  Toledo  and  Wabash. 
Strikers  in  the  Lackawanna,  Pa.,  region,

throughout  all  the  land,  and  unto  all  the  inhabitants  thereof.”  The  most  important  event  connected  with 
the  bell  is,  that  it  rang  to  proclaim  the  birth  of  a nation,  and  the  freedom  of  the  American  people  from 
British  oppression.  It  was  broken  in  ringing.

IMPORTANT  EVP:NTS  OF  THE  CENTURY. 


1877. 

€rty,  causing  a suspension  of  work  in  the 
mines 

July  30. — Striking  trainmen  of  the 
Lake  Shore,  Texas  Pacific,  Delaware, 
Lackawanna  and  Great  Western  Railroads, 
and  of  several  lines  centering  at  Pittsburg, 
Pa.,  went  back  to  work  at  the  reduced 
wages,  the  question  of  pay  to  come  up  for 
future  discussion.  Freight  trains  in  large 
numbers  were  moved  on  the  Pennsylvania 
and  Baltimore  and  Ohio  roads.  At  Gal- 
veston, Texas,  the  colored  laborers  struck. 
Regular  trains  were  running  on  the  Morris 
and  Essex  and  New  Jersey  Central  Rail- 
roads. 

July  30. — No  fresh  outbreaks  oc- 
curred on  the  railroads,  and  dispatches 
from  various  points  indicated  a speedy  re- 
sumption of  work.  At  Baltimore  many  of 
the  old  men  were  returning,  more  offering 
than  could  be  made  use  of. 

Aug.  3. — Eight  or  more  girls  lost  their 
lives  by  the  burning  of  a box  factory  in 
Cincinnati. — The  labor  war  was  virtually 
at  an  end.  Freight  trains  were  running,  or 
were  about  to  be  started,  on  all  the  roads. 
The  striking  miners  in  the  coal  regions  of 
Pennsylvania  were  kept  quiet  by  the  pres- 
ence of  troops.  The  coroner’s  jury  at 
Baltimore,  Md. , exonerat  ed  the  Sixth  Regi- 
ment from  all  blame  for  the  riot. 

Aug.  11. — News  was  received  of  a se- 
vere battle  between  General  Gibbon’s  com- 
mand and  the  Nez  Perces  Indians,  on  the 
Big  Hole  River,  M.  T. , Aug.  9.  The  sol- 
diers attacked  an  Indian  camp,  which  they 
took  after  hard  fighting,  but  were  after- 
wards driven  baf^’k,  with  the  loss  of  nearly 
one-half  their  force.  The  Indians  also  suf- 
fered greatly.  Among  the  killed  were 
Capt.  William  Logan  and  Lieut.  James  H. 
Bradley,  while  Gen.  Gibbon,  Capt.  Wil- 
liams and  Lieutenants  Coolidge,  English 
nnd  Woodruff  were  wounded. 

Aug.  16. — The  centenary  of  the  battle 
of  Bennington,  Vt.,  was  celebrated.  A pro- 
cession four  miles  lon^c  was  witnessed  by 
over  sixty  thousand  people.  Prof.  Bartlett 
delivered  the  oration,  a poem  by  W.  C. 
Brvant  was  read  by  Prof.  Churchill,  and 
speeches  were  made  by  President  Hayes, 
Secretary  Evarts  and  others. 

Aug.  18. — A.  Gesner,  E.  T.  Hender- 
son and  E.  B.  Weston,  were  arrested  at 
Chicago,  111. , charged  with  being  members

PRESIDENTS 


(FIRST  PRESIDENT— TWO  TERMS.) 

Oeorg-e  Wa^liiiig-ton  was  born  on 
the  Potomac  river,  in  Westmoreland  county, 
Virginia,  February  22d,  1732,  and  died  Decem- 
ber 14,  1799.  In  1754  he  was  made  Lieutenant 
Colonel  of  the  militia,  and  accompanied  Brad- 
dock  in  his  expedition  against  Fort  Duquesne 
in  1755.  In  the  same  year  he  was  made  Com- 
mander-in-Chief  of  the  military  forces  of  the 
Colony  ofVa.,and  in  1787  he  was  unanimously 
chosen  President  of  the  Convention  that  met 
to  frame  a Constitution.  He  was  inaugurated 
first  President  of  the  United  States,  April  30, 
1789:  and,  being  re-elected,  he  held  the  office 
until  1797.  In  1788  and  in  1792  he  was  again 
chosen  President  of  the  United  States,  but, 
conceiving  it  to  be  a dangerous  precedent  ,to 
serve  more  than  two  terms,  he  patriotically  de- 
clined a third  election.  In  early  life  he  fol- 
lowed the  occupation  of  an  engineer.  He  was 
married  to  Miss  Martha  Custis,  in  January, 
1759.  Congress  unanimously  elected  him  com- 
mander of  the  revolutionary  forces,  and  he 
took  active  command  July  2,  1775,  and  held  su- 
preme military  control  throughout  the  strug-

gle  for  independence. 

^With  George  Washington  for  our  first  Pres- 
ident, we  began  our  new  experiment  in  the 
manner  of  choosing  rulers,  taking  the  surest 
possible  mode,  as  all  the  world  then  thought, 
of  selecting  a good  man  and  the  one  best 
adapted  to  the  position. 

Washington  was  left  fatherless  at  eleven 
years  of  age;  his  education  was  directed  by  his 
mother,  a woman  of  strong  character,  who 
kindly,  but  firmly,  exacted  the  most  implicit 
obedience.  Of  her  Washington  learned  his 
first  lessons  of  self-command.  His  favorite 
amusements  were  of  a military  character;  he 
made  soldiers  of  his  playmates,  and  ofiicered 
all  the  mock  parades.  His  inherited  wealth 
was  great,  and  the  antiquity  of  his  family  gave 
him  high  social  rank.  On  his  Potomac  farms 
he  had  hundreds  of  slaves,  and  at  his  Mount 
Vernon  home  he  was  like  the  prince  of  a wide 
domain,  free  from  dependence  or  restraint.  He 
was  fond  of  equipage  and  the  appurtenances  of 
high  life,  Although  he  always  rode  on  horse- 
back, his  family  had  a ‘‘chariot  and  four,”with 
“black  postillions  in  scarlet  and  white  livery.” 
This  generous  style  of  living,  added  perhaps 
to  his  native  reserve,  exposed  him  to  the 
charge  of  aristocratic  feeling.  While  at  his 
home,  he  spent  much  of  his  time  in  riding  and 
hunting.  He  rose  eaidy,  ate  his  breakfast  of 
corn-cake,  honey,  and  tea,  and  then  rode  about 
his  estates.  He  spent  his  evenings  with  his 
family  around  the  blazing  hearth,  retiring  be- 
tween nine  and  ten.  He  loved  to  linger  at  the 
table,  cracking  nuts  and  relating  his  adven- 
tures. In  personal  appearance,  Washington 
was  over  six  feet  in  height,  robust,  graceful, 
and  perfectly  erect.  His  manner  was  formal 
and  dignified.  He  was  more  solid  than  bril- 
liant, and  had  more  judgment  than  genius.  He 
had  great  dread  of  public  life,  cared  little  for 
books,  and  had  no  library.  Washington  was  a 
consistent  Christian,  and  a regular  attendant  of 
the  Episcopal  church,  of  which  he  was  a com- 
municant. He  was  a firm  advocate  of  free  in- 
stitutions, but  believed  in  a strong  government 
and  strictly  enforced  laws.  As  a President,  he 
carefully  weighed  his  decisions,  but,  his  policy 
once  settled,  he  pursued  it  with  steadiness  and 
dignity,  however  great  might  be  the  opposi- 
tion. As  an  oflBcer,  he  was  brave,  enterpris- 
ing, and  cautious.  His  campaigns  were  rarely 
j startling,  but  they  were  always  judicious.  He 
I was  capable  of  great  endurance.  Calm  in  de- 
j feat,  sober  in  victory,  commanding  at  all  times, 
but  irresistible  when  aroused,  he  exercised 
equal  authority  over  himself  and  his  army. 
His  last  illness  was  very  brief,  and  his  closing 
hours  were  marked  by  his  usual  calmness  and 
dignity.  “I  die  hard,”  he  said,  “but  1 am  not 
' afraid  to  go.”  Europe  and  America  vied  in 
tributes  to  his  memory.  Said  Lord  Brougham, 
“Until  time  shall  be  no  more,  a test  of  the  pro- 
gress which  our  race  has  made  in  wisdom  and 
I virtue  will  be  derived  from  the  veneration  paid 
to  the  immortal  name  of  Washington.” 
Washington  left  no  children.  It  has  been 
beautifully  said,  “Providence  left  him  child- 
less that  his  country  might  call  him  Father.”

JToliit  Acla,in$i>  was  born  in  Braintree,

uated at  Harvard  College  in  1755,  and,  aban- 
doning the  idea  of  becoming  a minister  of  the 
gospel,  was  admitted  to  the  bar  in  1758.  He 
was  one  of  the  delegates  first  sent  to  the  Con-

War,  and  went  to  France  as  a Commissioner  in 
1777.  He  served  as  President  of  the  United 
States  from  1797  to  1801,  He  was  a member 
of  the  first  and  second  Congresses,  and  nomin- 
ated Washington  as  commander-in-chief.  Jef- 
ferson wrote  the  Declaraton  of  Independence, 
but  Adams  secured  its  adoption  in  a three- 
days’  debate.  He  Avas  a tireless  worker,  and 
had  the  reputation  of  having  the  clearest  head 
and  firmest  heart  of  any  man  in  Congress.  In 
his  position  as  President  he  lost  the  reputation 
he  had  gained  as  Congressman.  His  enemies  i 
accused  him  of  being  a bad  judge  of  men;  of  I 
clinging  to  old  unpopular  notions,  and  of  hav- 
ing little  control  over  his  temper.  They  also 
ridiculed  his  egotism,  which  they  declared  to  i 
be  inordinate.  He  lived,  however,  to  see  the  j 
prejudice  against  his  administration  give  place  ’ 
to  a more  just  estimate  of  his  great  vAmrth  and 
exalted  integrity.  As  a Delegate  to  the  Con- 
stitutional Convention,  he  was  honored  as  one 
of  the  fathers  of  the  republic.  Adams  and 
Jefferson  were  firm  friends  during  the  Revolu- 
lution,  but  political  strife  alieniated  them.  On 
their  return  to  private  life  they  became  recon- 
ciled. They  died  on  the  same  day — the  fiftieth 
anniversary  of  American  independence.  Ad- 
ams’ last  words  were,  “ Thomas  .Jefferson  still 
survives.”  Jefferson  was,  however,  already 
lying  dead  in  his  Virginia  home.  Thus,  by  the 
passing  away  of  these  two  remarkable  men, 
was  made  memorable  the  4th  of  July,  1826.

SKETCHES  OF  THE  PRESIDENTS. 


(THIRD  PRESIDENT. ) 

X]ioma»^  JelFersoii  was  born  at 
Shadwell,  Virginia,  April  2d,  1743;  and  died 
July  4,  1826.  After  graduating  from  William 
and  Mary  College,  he  adopted  the  profession  of 
the  law. 

“ Of  all  the  public  men  who  have  figured  in 
the  United  States,”  says  Parton,  ‘Hie  was  in- 
comparably the  best  scholar  and  the  most  va- 
riously accomplished  man.”  He  was  a bold 
horseman,  a skillful  hunter,  an  elegant  pen- 
man, a fine  violinist,  a brilliant  talker,  a supe- 
rior classical  scholar,  and  a proficient  in  the 
modern  languages.  On  account  of  his  talent, 
he  was  styled  The  Sage  of  Monticello.”  The 
immortal  document,  the  Declaration  of  Inde- 
pendence, was,  with  the  exception  of  a few 
words,  entirely  his  work.  He  was  an  ardent 
supporter  of  the  doctrine  of  State  rights,  and 
led  the  opposition  to  the  Federalists.  After  he 
became  President,  however,  he  found  the  diffi- 
culty of  administering  the  government  upon 
that  theory.  “ The  executive  authority  had  to 
be  stretched  until  it  cracked,  to  cover  the  pur- 
chase of  Louisiana;”  and  he  became  convinced 
on  other  occasions  that  the  federal  govern- 
ment, to  use  his  own  expression, ‘Anust  show 
its  teeth.”  Like  Washington,  he  was  of  aris- 
tocratic birth,  but  his  principles  were  intensely 
democratic.  He  hated  ceremonies  and  titles; 
even  Mr.”  was  distasteful  to  him.  These 
traits  were  the  more  remarkable  to  one  of  his 
superior  birth  and  education,  and  peculiarly 
endeared  him  to  the  common  people.  Coming 
into  power  on  a wave  of  popularity,  he  studi- 
ously sought  to  retain  this  favor.  There  were 
no  more  brilliant  levees  or  courtly  ceremonies 
as  in  the  days  of  Washington  and  Adams.  On 
his  inauguration  day,  he  rode  down  to  Con-

gress  unattended,  and,  leaping  from  his  horse, 

I hitched  it,  and  went  into  the  chamber  dressed 
j in  plain  clothes,  to  read  his  fifteen-minutes’ 

' inaugural.  Some  of  the  sentences  of  that 
I short  but  memorable  address  have  passed  into 
proverbs.  The  unostentatious  example  thus 
set  by  the  nation’s  President  was  wise  in  its 
effects.  Soon  the  public  debt  was  diminished, 
the  army  and  navy  reduced,  and  the  Treasury 
replenished.  A man  of  such  marked  character 
necessarily  made  bitter  enemies,  but  Jefferson 
commanded  the  respect  of  even  his  opponents, 
while  the  admiration  of  his  friends  was  un- 
bounded. The  last  seventeen  years  of  his  life 
were  spent  at  Monticello,  near  the  place  of  his 
birth.  By  his  profuse  hospitality,  he  had,  be- 
fore his  death,  spent  his  vast  estates,  tie 
died  poor  in  money,  but  rich  in  honor.  His 
last  words  were,  “‘This  is  the  fourth  day  of 
July.” 


(FOURTH  PRESIDENT.— TWO  TERMS.) 

was  born  in  King 
George  comity,  Virginia,  ^larch  16,  1751,  and 
died  in  1830.  He  graduated  at  Princeton  Col- 
lege in  1778,  after  which  he  studied  law;  and 
from  1809  to  1817  he  Avas  President  of  the  Uni- 
ted States.  In  Congress  in  1789  he  became  one 
of  the  strongest  advocates  of  the  Constitution 
and  did  much  to  secure  its  adoption.  From  his 
, political  principles  he  was  obliged,  though  rc- 
' Inctantly,  to  oppose  Wasliington’s  administra- 
! tion,  which  he  did  in  a courteous  and  temper- 
i ate  manner.  He  led  his  party  in  Congress, 
where  he  remained  till  1797.  The  next  year 
j he  drafted  the  famous  “1798-99  Resolutions,” 
enunciating  the  doctrines  of  State  rights, 
which,  with  the  accompanying  “Report”  in 
their  defense,  have  been  the  great  text-book  of 
the  Democratic  party.  He  was  Secretary  of

SKETCHES  OF  THE  PRESIDENTS. 


State  to  Jefferson.  After  bis  Presidential  ser- 
vices, lie  retired  from  public  station,  Madison’s 
success  was  not  so  much  the  result  of  a great 
natural  ability  as  of  intense  application  and  se- 
vere accuracy.  His  mind  was  strong,  clear, 
and  well  balanced,  and  his  memory  was  won- 
derful. Like  John  Quincy  Adams,  he  had  laid 
up  great  store  of  learning,  which  he  used  in 
the  most  skillful  manner.  He  always  ex- 
hausted the  subject  upon  which  he  spoke. 
*‘When  he  had  finished,  nothing  remained  to  be 
said.”  His  private  character  was  spotless. 
His  manner  was  simple,  modest,  and  uniform- 
ly courteous  to  his  opponents.  He  enjoyed  wit 
and  humor,  and  told  a story  admirably.  His 
sunny  temper  remained  with  him  to  the  last. 
Some  friends  coming  to  visit  him  during  his 
final  illness,  he  sank  smilingly  back  on  his 
couch,  saying,  “I  always  talk  better  when  I 
lie”  It  has  been  said  of  him,  “It  was  his 
rare  good  fortune  to  have  a whole  nation  for 
his  friends.” 


(fifth  president.— two  terms.) 
•la-nies  Monroe  was  born  in  West- 
moreland county,  Virginia,  April  28,  1758,  and 
died  in  the  city  of  New  York,  July  4,  1831.  He 
filled  the  office  of  President  of  the  United 
States  from  the  year  1817  to  1825.  As  a soldier 
under  General  Washington  he  bore  a brave  re- 
cord, and  especially  distinguished  himself  in 
the  battles  of  Brandywine,  Germantown,  and 
Monmonth.  Afterward  he  studied  law,  and 
entered  political  life.  Having  been  sent  b3" 
Washington  as  Minister  to  France,  he  showed 
such  mai’ked  sympathy  with  that  country  as  to 
displease  the  President  and  his  cabinet,  who 
were  just  coucluding  a treaty  with  England, 
and  wished  to  preserve  a strictly  neutral  pt, 
icy.  He  Avas  therefore  recalled.  Under  Jeffer- 
son, who  was  his  Avarm  friend,  he  was  again

sent  to  France  in  1803,  when  he  secured  the 
purchase  of  Louisiana.  He  is  said  to  have  al- 
ways taken  particular  pride  in  this  transac- 
tion, regarding  his  part  in  it  as  among  the 
most  important  of  his  public  services.  Soon 
after  his  inauguration  as  President,  he  visited 
the  military  posts  in  the  north  and  cast,  with  a 
view  to  thorough  ac(|uaintance  with  the  capa- 
bilities of  the  country  in  the  event  of  future 
hostilities.  This  tour  was  a great  success.  He 
wore  a blue  military  coat  of  home-spun,  light- 
colored  breeches,  and  a cocked  hat,  being  the 
undress  uniform  of  a Revolutionary  officer. 
Thus  was  the  nation  reminded  of  his  former 
military  services.  This,  with  his  plain,  unas- 
suming manners,  completely  won  the  hearts  of 
the  people,  and  brought  an  overwhelming  ma- 
jority to  the  support  of  the  administration. 
Itlonroe  was  a man  more  prudent  than  brilliant, 
who  acted  with  a single  eye  to  the  welfare  of 
the  country,  Jefferson  said  of  him  : ‘‘If  his 
soul  were  turned  inside  out,  not  a spot  could  be 
found  on  it.”  Like  that  beloved  friend,  he 
died  “poor  in  money,  but  rich  in  honor,”  and 
like  him  also,  he  passed  away  on  the  anniver- 
sary of  the  independence  of  the  country  he 
served  so  faithfully. 


{ SIXTH  PRESIDENT. ) 

John  C^iiincy  Adams  was  born  at 
Braintree,  Mass.,  July  11,  1767,  and  died  at 
Washington,  February  23, 1848.  He  was  Pres- 
ident from  1825  to  1829. 

John  Q.  Adams  was  a man  of  learning,  of 
blame’ ess  reputation  and  unquestioned  patri- 
otisn  ’^resident  he  was  hardly  more 

successful  Cu.^.  ais  father.  This  was,  doubt- 
less, owing  greatly  to  the  fierce  o])position 
which  assailed  him  from  the  friends  of  disap- 
pointed candidates,  who  at  once  combined  t» 
weaken  his  measures  and  prevent  his  re-elec-

SKETCHES  OF  THE  PRESIDENTS. 


man  whose  dashing  boldness,  energy  and  de- 
cision attracted  the  popular  masses,  and  hid 
the  more  quiet  virtues  of  Adams.  To  add  to 
his  perplexities,  a majority  of  the  House,  and 
nearly  one-half  of  the  Senate,  favored  the  new 
party;  and  his  own  Vice-President,  John  C. 
Calhoun,  was  also  the  candidate  of  the  opposi- 
tion, and  of  course  committed  to  it.  To  stem 
such  a tide  was  a hopeless  effort.  In  two 
years  Adams  was  returned  to  Congress,  where 
he  remained  until  his  death,  over  sixteen 
years  afterward.  Ten  years  of  public  service 
were  thus  rendered  after  he  had  passed  his 
‘‘three-score  years  and  ten,”  and  so  great  was 
his  ability  in  debate  at  this  extreme  age,  that 
he  was  called  “ the  old  man  eloquent.’  Like 
his  father,  he  was  a wonderful  worker,  and  his 
min(i  was  a complete  store-house  of  facts.  He 
lived  economically,,  and  left  a large  estate.  He 
was  the  congressional  advocate  of  anti-slav- 
ery, and  a bitter  opponent  of  secret  societies. 
His  fame  increased  with  his  age,  and  he  died  a 
trusted  and  revered  champion  of  popular 
rights.  He  was  siezed  with  paralysis  while 
occupying  his  seat  in  Congress,  after  which  he 
lingered  two  days  in  partial  unconsciousness. 
His  last  words  were,  “ This  is  the  last  of  earth; 
I am  content.  ’ 


(SEVENTH  PRESIDENT.— TWO  TERMS.) 

Aiiilrov  Jackson  was  born  in  Wax- 
haw  settlement.  North  or  South  Carolina, 
March  15,  1767,  and  died  at  the  Hermitage, 
near  Nashville,  June  8,  1845.  He  served  as 
President  of  the  United  States  from  1829  to 
1837. 

The  nomination  of  Presidential  candidates 
by  “Convention,”  as  the  term  is  now  under- 
stood and  applied,  dates  from  the  year  1832. 
At  the  first  election  Jackson  was  nominated  by

the  Legislature  of  Tennessee  and  other  States, 
as  well  as  by  several  bodies  of  citizens  and 
Conventions,  but  the  first  regularly  constitu- 
ted Convention  of  a party  as  an  organized 
body,  and  fulfilling  all  the  assumed  functions 
of  the  old  Congressional  Caucus,  met  at  Balti- 
more, on  the  22d  of  May,  1832,  and  nominated 
Jackson  and  V an  Buren  as  the  Democratic  can- 
didates for  President  and  Vice  President.  The 
Whig  candidates,  less  ‘^regularly”  nominated, 
were  Henry  Clay  and  John  Sergeant,  of  Penn- 
sylvania,who  were  the  anti-Masonic  candidates. 
The  leading  issue  of  the  campaign  grew  out  of 
the  question  of  the  re-charter  of  the  United 
States  Bank,  the  W^higs  favoring  and  the  Dem- 
ocrats opposing  it. 

Jackson  was  of  Scotch-Irish  descent.  His 
father  died  before  he  was  born,  and  his  mother 
was  very  poor.  As  a boy,  Andrew  was  brave 
and  impetuous,  passionately  fond  of  athletic 
sports,  but  not  at  all  addicted  to  books.  His 
life  was  crowded  with  excitement  and  adven- 
ture. At  fourteen,  being  captured  by  the  Brit- 
ish, he  was  ordered  to  clean  the  commander’s 
boots.  Showing  the  true  American  spirit  in 
his  refusal,  he  was  sent  to  prison  with  a wound 
on  head  and  arm.  Here  he  had  the  small-pox, 
which  kept  him  ill  for  several  months.  Soon 
after  his  mother  had  effected  his  exchange,  she 
died  of  ship-fever  while  caring  for  the  impris- 
oned Americans  at  Charleston.  Left  entirely 
destitute,  young  Jackson  tried  various  employ- 
ments, but  finally  settled  down  to  the  law,  and 
in  1796  was  elected  to  Congress.  His  imperious 
temper  and  inflexible  will  supplied  him  with 
constant  quarrels.  Often  they  were  passion- 
ate word-contests,  sometimes  they  became 
hand-to-hand  encounters,  and  on  one  occasion 
a formal  duel  was  fought,  in  which  he  killed 
i his  adversary,  himself  being  severely  wound- 
' ed.  The  scars  he  bore  upon  his  person  were 
of  wounds  received  in  private  battles,  some  of 
which  left  a mark  for  life.  Jackson  first  dis- 
tinguished himself  as  a military  officer  in  the 
! war  against  the  Creek  Indians,  which  he  made 
a signal  victory.  His  dashing  successes  in  the 
war  of  1812  completed  his  reputation,  and  ulti- 
mately won  him  the  Presidency.  His  nomina- 
tion was  at  first  received  in  many  States  with 
ridicule,  as,  whatever  might  be  his  military 
prowess,  neither  his  temper  nor  his  ability 
I seemed  to  recommend  him  as  a statesman, 
j However,  his  re-election  proved  his  popular 
I success  as  a President.  His  chief  intellectual 
I gifts  were  energy  and  intuitive  judgment.  He 
I was  thoroughly  honest,  intensely  warm-heart- 
ed, and  had  an  instinctive  horror  of  debt.  His 
I moral  courage  was  as  great  as  his  physical, 
and  his  patriotism  was  undoubted.  He  died  at 
the  “Hermitage,”  his  home  near  Nashville, 

I Tennessee.  Jackson  and  Adams  were  born  the 
I same  year,  yet  how  different  was  their  child- 
i hood!  One  born  to  luxury  and  travel,  a stu- 
dent from  his  earliest  years,  and  brilliantly 
I educated;  the  other  poor,  hating  books;  and 
[ seeking  any  kind  of  work  to  escape  from  want. 
Yet  they  were  destined  twice  to  compete  for 
the  highest  place  in  the  nation.  Adams,  the 
first  time  barely  successful,  was  unfortunate 
, in  his  administration;  Jackson,  triumphing 
the  second,  was  brilliant  in  his  Presidential 
‘ career.

(eighth  PRESIDENT.) 


ITIarliii  Van  Ifnron  was  born  at 
Kinderhook,  New  York,  December  5,  1782,  and 
and  died,  at  the  same  place,  .July  24,  1862.  He 
studied  law  and  was  admitted  to  practice  in 
1803;  was  elected  President  of  the  United 
States,  and  served  four  years,  from  1837  to 
1841.  He  early  took  an  interest  in  politics, 
and  in  1818  started  a new  organization  of  the 
Democratic  party  in  New  Y"ork,  his  native 
State,  which  had  the  power  for  over  tw^enty 
years.  In  1831  he  was  appointed  Minister  to 
England,  whither  he  went  in  September,  but 
when  the  nomination  came  before  the  Senate 
in  December  it  was  rejected,  on  the  ground 
that  he  had  sided  with  England  against  the 
United  States,  on  certain  matters,  and  had 
carried  party  contests  and  their  results  into 
foreign  negotiations.  His  party  regarded  this 
as  an  extreme  political  ])ersecution,  and  the 
next  year  elected  him  to  the  Y"ice-Presidency. 
He  thus  became  head  of  the  Senate  which  a 
few  months  before  bad  condemned  him,  and 
where  he  now  performed  his  duties  with  “ dig- 
nity, courtesy  and  impartiality.” 

As  a President,  Van  Buren  was  the  subject 
of  much  partisan  censure.  The  country  was 
passing  throng  a peculiar  crisis,  and  his  was  a 
difficult  position  to  fill  with  satisfaction  to  all. 
That  he  pleased  his  own  party  is  proved  from 
the  fact  of  his  re-nomination  in  1840  against 
Harrison.  In  1844  he  was  once  more  urged  by 
his  friends,  but  failed  to  get  a two-thirds  vote 
in  the  convention  on  account  of  his  opposition 
to  the  annexation  of  Texas.  In  1848  he  be- 
came a candidate  of  the  “ Free  Democracy,”  a 
new  party  advocating  anti-slavery  principles. 
After  this  he  retired  to  his  estate  in  Kinder- 
book,  N.  Y.,  where  he  died.

( NINTH  PRESIDENT. ) 


William  Henry  Harrison  was 

born  in  Charle's  City  county,  Virginia,  Febru- 
ary 9,  1773.  He  entered  the  army  in  1791,  af- 
ter graduating  from  Hampden-Sydney  Col- 
lege. After  reaching  the  grade  of  Captain  he 
resigned  in  1797;  was  chosen  delegate  to  Con- 
gress from  the  North-western  Territory  in 
1797;  appointed  governor  of  Indiana  in  1801, 
and  continued  to  1813.  He  was  elected  Presi- 
dent of  the  United  States  in  1840,  and  had 
scarcely  entered  upon  the  duties  of  his  office 
when  he  died  at  Washington,  April  4,  1841.  In 
1812  he  distinguished  himself  during  the  war, 
especially  in  the  battle  of  the  Thames.  His 
military  reputation  made  him  available  as 
a Presidential  candidate.  His  character  was 
unimpeachable,  and  the  chief  slur  cast  upon 
him  by  his  opponents  was  that  he  had  lived  in 
a “ log  cabin  ” with  nothing  to  drink  but  “hard 
cider.”  His  friends  turned  this  to  good  ac- 
count. The  campaign  was  noted  for  immense 
mass-meetings,  long  processions,  song-singing 
and  general  enthusiasm.  “ Hard  cider  ” be- 
came a party  watch-word,  and  “ log  cabins  ” a 
regular  feature  in  the  popular  parades.  He 
was  elected  by  a very  large  majority,  and  great 
hopes  were  entertained  of  his  administration. 
Though  advanced  in  years,  he  gave  promise  of 
endurance.  But  “ he  was  beset  by  office-seek- 
ers; he  was  anxious  to  gratify  the  numerous 
friends  and  supporters  who  flocked  about  him; 
he  gave  himself  incessantly  to  public  busi- 
ness; and  at  the  close  of  the  month  he  was  on 
a sick  bed.”  His  illness  was  of  eight  days’ 
duration.  His  last  words  were,  “The  princi- 
ples of  the  government,  I wish  them  carried 
out.  I ask  nothing  more.”

(TENTH  PRESIDENT.)  i 

•Yoliii  !•  was  born  in  Charles  City  j 

county,  Virginia,  March  20,  1790,  and  died  at  j 
Richmond,  Va.,  January  17,  1862.  He  studied  i 
law,  and  was  elected  to  Congress  in  1816,  and  i 
served  some  five  years;  was  elected  IT.  S.  Sen-  j 
ator  in  1827;  re-elected  in  1833,  and  was  Presi- 
dent of  the  Peace  Convention  at  Washington  j 
in  1861.  I 

Mr.  Tyler  became  President  upon  the  death 
of  Mr.  Harrison  as  his  constitutional  successor 
as  Vice  President  of  the  United  States.  John 
Tyler  was  in  early  life  a great  admirer  of 
Henry  Clay,  and  is  said  to  have  wept  with  sor 
vow  when  the  whigs  in  convention  rejected  his 
favorite  candidate  for  the  Presidency,  and  se- 
lected Harrison.  He  was  nominated  Vice- 
President  by  a unanimous  vote,  and  was  a 
great  favorite  with  his  party.  In  the  popular  | 
refrain,  ^‘Tippecanoe  and  Tyler  too,”  the  peo- 
ple sung  praises  to  him  as  heartily  as  to  Harri- 
son himself.  The  death  of  Harrison  and  the 
succession  of  Tyler,  was  the  first  instance  of 
the  kind  in  our  history. 

Tyler’s  administration  was  not  successful. 
He  opposed  the  measures  of  his  party,  and 
made  free  use  of  the  veto  power.  His  former 
political  friends  denounced  him  as  a renegade, 
to  which  he  replied  that  he  had  never  pro- 
fessed to  endorse  the  measures  which  he  op- 
posed. The  feeling  increased  in  bitterness. 
All  his  cabinet,  except  Webster,  resigned.  He 
was,  however,  nominated  by  a convention  com- 
posed chiefly  of  office-holders,  for  the  next 
Presidency;  he  accepted,  but,  finding  no  popu- 
lar sxipport,  soon  withdrew  from  the  canvass. 
In  1861  he  became  the  presiding  officer  of  the 
peace  convention  in  Washington.  All  eff’orts 
at  reconciliation  proving  futile,  he  renounced 
his  allegiance  to  the  United  States  and  fol- 
lowed the  Confederate  fortunes.  He  died  in 
Richmond,  where  he  was  in  attendance  as  a 
member  of  the  Confederate  Congress.

(eleventh  president.) 


•F sillier  I*ollc  was  born  in  Mecklin- 
burg  county,  North  Carolina,  November  2, 
1795,  and  died  at  Nashville,  June  15,  1849.  He 
graduated  from  the  University  of  North  Caro- 
lina in  1816,  and  studied  law;  was  elected  to 
Congress  in  1825,  and  several  terms  subse- 
quently; chosen  Speaker  of  the  House,  1835 
and  1837,  and  Governor  of  Tennessee  in  1839. 
Mr.  Polk  was  very  unexpectedly  nominated  for 
President,  in  Baltimore,  on  the  27th  day  of 
May,  1844.  He  pleased  his  party  as  a candi- 
date, and  justified  their  fondest  expectations 
as  a man  well  worthy  and  well  qualified  to  fill 
the  office  of  Chief  Magistrate  of  the  United 
States,  who  surrounded  himself  with  an  able 
cabinet  of  counsellors.  He  served  as  Presi- 
dent from  1845  to  1849. 

Mr.  Polk  was  one  of  the  most  conspicuous 
opposers  of  the  administration  of  J.  Q.  Adams, 
and  a warm  supporter  of  Jackson.  In  1839, 
having  served  fourteen  years  in  Congress,  he 
declined  a re-election  and  was  chosen  Gov- 
ernor of  Tennessee.  His  Presidential  nomina- 
tion, in  connection  wdth  that  of  George  M. 
Dallas,  of  Pennsylvania,  as  Y^ice-President, 
had  the  effect  of  uniting  the  Democratic  party, 
which  had  been  disturbed  by  dissensions  be- 
tween the  friends  and  opponents  of  Martin  Van 
Buren.  However,  the  Mexican  war,  which  in 
many  States  was  strongly  o])posed,  the  enact- 
ment of  a tariff  based  on  a revenue  jirinclple 
instead  of  a protective  one,  and  the  agitation 
caused  by  the  ‘‘Wilmot  Proviso,”  all  con- 
spired to  affect  his  popularity  before  the  end  of 
his  term.  He  had, how'cver,  previously  pledged 
himself  not  to  be  a candidate  for  re-election. 
He  died  about  three  months  after  his  retire- 
ment from  office.

SKETCHES  OF  THE  PRESIDENTS. 


( TWELFTH  PRESIDENT. ) 

Zaclian’y  Xayloi*  was  born  in  Orange 
county,  Virginia,  November  24,  1784.  He  en- 
tered upon  the  duties  of  President  in  1849,  and 
died  at  the  Presidential  Mansion  July  9,  1850, 
after  an  illness  of  five  days.  Soon  after  his 
birth  his  parents  removed  to  Kentucky.  His 
means  of  education  were  of  the  scantiest  kind, 
and  until  he  was  twenty-four  years  of  age  he 
worked  on  his  father’s  plantation.  Madison, 
who  was  a relative,  and  at  that  time  Secretary 
of  State,  then  secured  for  him  an  appointment 
in  the  army  as  lieutenant.  From  this  he  rose 
by  regular  and  rapid  degrees  to  a major  gen- 
eralship. His  triumphant  battles  at  Palo  Alto, 
Resaca  de  la  Palma,  Monterey,  and  Buena 
Vista,  won  him  great  applause.  He  was  the 
popular  hero  of  a successful  war.  The  sol- 
diers admiringly  called  him  “ Old  Rough  and 
Ready.”  Having  been  offered  the  nomination 
for  President,  he  published  several  letters  de- 
fining his  position  as  “ a whig,  but  not  an  ul- 
tra-whig,” and  declaring  that  he  would  not  be 
a party  candidate  or  the  exponent  of  party 
doctrines.  Many  of  the  whig  leaders  vio- 
lently opposed  his  nomination,  Daniel  Web- 
ster called  him  “ an  ignorant  frontier  colonel.” 
The  fact  that  he  was  a slaveholder  was  warmly 
urged  against  him.  He  knew  nothing  of  civil 
affairs,  and  had  taken  so  little  interest  in  poli- 
tics that  he  had  not  voted  in  forty  years.  But 
he  was  nominated  and  elected.  His  nomina- 
tion caused  a secession  from  the  whigs,  result- 
ing in  the  formation  of  the  free-soil  party.  He 
felt  his  want  of  qualificat-ons  for  the  position, 
and  sometimes  expressed  his  regret  that  he 
had  accepted  it;  yet  he  maintained  as  Presi- 
dent the  popularity  which  had  led  to  his  elec- 
tion, and  was  personally  one  of  the  most  es- 
teemed who  have  filled  that  oflBce.

SKETCHES  OF  THE  PRESIDENTS. 


(thirteenth  president.) 


Millard  Fillmore,  being  elected 
Vice-President  to  President  Taylor,  became 
his  constitutional  successor,  and  served  the 
unexpired  term  from  1850  to  1853.  Very  ex- 
citing questions  arose  during  his  term  of  office: 
among  them  the  slavery  question,  the  admis- 
sion of  California  into  the  Union  as  a free 
State,  and  the  passage  of  the  Fugitive  Slave 
Law — providing  for  the  return  to  their  owners 
of  slaves  escaping  to  a free  State.  During  the 
debate  of  these  questions,  for  a while  it  seemed 
as  if  the  Union  would  be  rent  asunder.  Mr. 
Fillmore  treated  them  with  dignity,  if  not  with 
statesmanship,  till  finally  conciliatory  meas- 
ures prevailed,  and  the  questions  were  amicably 
settled.  In  every  respect  Mr.  Fillmore  dis- 
charged the  duties  of  President  as  a conscien- 
tious, sensible  man,  thoroughly  acquainted  with 
legislative  and  general  political  principles. 

President  Fillmore  was  born  in  Cayuga 
•county.  New  York,  January  7,  1800,  and  died 
March  8,  1874.  He  had  not  a very  liberal  edu- 
cation, and,  when  young,  served  as  an  appren- 
tice to  the  fuller’s  trade.  In  the  year  1821,  he 
was  admitted  to  the  bar,  and  practiced  law 
with  success.  From  1832  to  1840  he  was  a 
member  of  Congress;  in  1842  he  \yas  nomin- 
ated by  the  Whigs  of  New  York  for  Governor, 
and  was  defeated;  and  in  185G  the  Native 
American  party  run  him  for  President,  and  he 
received  only  the  electoral  vote  of  Maryland. 

Upon  the  death  of  President  Taylor,  the  en- 
tire Cabinet  resigned.  . .

(FOURTEENTH  PRESIDENT. ) 

Fraiilcliai  S*ierce  was  born  at  Hills- 
borough, New  Hampshire,  on  the  23d  of  Nov- 
ember, 1804,  and  died  in  1869.  He  graduated 
at  Bowdoin  College,  Maine,  in  1824;  studied  law 
and  was  admitted  to  the  bar  in  1827.  He  was 
President  from  1853  to  1857. 

Mr.  Pierce  had  barely  attained  the  requisite 
legal  age  when  he  was  elected  to  the  Senate. 
He  found  there  such  men  as  Clay,  Webster,  Cal- 
houn, Thomas  H.  Benton,  and  Silas  Wright. 
Nathaniel  Hawthorn  says  in  his  biography  of 
Mr.  Pierce:  “With  his  usual  tact  and  exquisite 
sense  of  propriety,  he  saw  it  was  not  the  time 
for  him  to  step  forward  prominently  on  this 
highest  theatre  in  the  land.  He  beheld  these 
great  combatants  doing  battle  before  the  eyes 
of  the  nation,  and  engrossing  its  whole  regards. 
There  was  hardly  an  avenue  to  reputation  save 
what  was  occupied  by  one  or  another  of  those 
gigantic  figures.”  During  Tyler’s  administra- 
tion, he  resigned.  When  the  Mexican  war 
broke  out,  he  enlisted  as  a volunteer,  but  soon 
rose  to  the  office  of  brigadier-general.  He  dis- 
tinguished himself  under  General  Scott,  against 
whom  he  afterwards  successfully  ran  for  the 
Presidency,  and  upon  whom,  during  his  admin- 
istration, he  conferred  the  title  of  lieutenant- 
general.  On  the  question  of  slavery,  Mr.  l^ierce 
always  sided  with  the  South,  and  opposed  anti- 
slavery measures  in  every  shape.  In  a mes- 
sage to  Congress  in  1856,  he  characterized  the 
formation  of  a free  State  goverrnent  in  Kansas 
as  an  act  of  rebellion,  and  justified  the  principles 
of  the  Kansas  and  Nebraska  Act.  He,  however, 
espoused  the  national  cause  at  the  opening  of 
the  civil  war,  and  urged  a cordial  support  of 
the  administration  at  Washington.

]Siiclisiita.u  was  born  in  Frank- 
lin county,  Pennsylvania,  April  13,  1791,  and 
died  at  Wheatland,  June  1,  1868.  He  was  a 
graduate  of  Dickinson  College  and  was  admit- 
ted to  the  bar  in  1812.  He  was  President  from 
1857  to  1861,  and  was  so  constantly  in  office 
from  1820  up  to  that  time  that  he  was  known 
by  the  sobriquet  of  ‘‘Public  Functionary.” 

The  “ bachelor-Presideut,”  as  Mr.  Buchanan 
was  sometimes  called,  was  sixty-six  years  old 
when  he  was  called  to  the  executive  chair. 
He  had  just  returned  to  his  native  country,  af- 
ter an  absence  of  four  years  as  Minister  to 
England,  previously  to  that  he  had  been  well 
known  in  public  life  as  Congressman,  Senator, 
and  as  Secretary  of  State  under  President  Polk. 
As  Senator  in  Jackson’s  time,  he  heartily  sup- 
ported his  administration.  With  Van  Buren, 
he  warmly  advocated  the  idea  of  an  independent 
treasury  against  the  opposition  of  Clay,  Web- 
ster, and  others.  Under  Tyler,  he  w^as  urg- 
ently in  favor  of  the  annexation  of  Texas,  thus 
again  coming  in  conflict  with  Clay  and  Web- 
ster. However,  he  cordially  agreed  with  them 
in  the  compromise  of  1850,  and  urged  its  favor 
upon  the  people.  Much  was  hoped  from  his 
election,  as  he  avowed  the  object  of  his  ad- 
ministration to  be  “ to  destroy  any  sectional 
party,  whether  North  or  South,  and  to  restore, 
if  possible,  that  national  fraternal  feeling  be- 
tween the  different  States  that  had  existed 
during  the  early  days  of  the  Republic.”  But 
popular  passion  and  sectional  jealousy  were 
too  strong  to  yield  to  pleasant  persuasion. 
When  Mr.  Buchanan’s  administration  closed, 
the  fearful  conflict  was  close  at  hand.  He  re- 
tired to  his  estate  in  Pennsylvania,  where  he 
died.

SIXTEENTH  PRESIDENT.) 


liincolii  wa.s  born  in  Har- 
din county,  Kentucky,  on  the  12th  of  Febru- 
ary, 1809.  He  was  elected  President  in  1860, 
and  was  re-elected  in  1864,  and  had  entered 
upon  the  duties  of  his  office  for  the  second 
time,  when  he  was  assasinated  by  John  Wilkes 
Booth,  April  14th,  1865,  and  died  the  following 
day. 

His  father  was  unable  to  read  or  w»'’*' 
Abraham’s  education  consisted  ^ ..r  s 

schooling.  When  he  was  e’ght  y^«rs  old,  his 
father  moved  to  Indiana,  the  tamliy  hoatiiig 
clown  the  Ohio  on  a raft.  When  nineteen 
years  of  age,  the  future  President  hired  out  as 
a hand  on  a flat-boat  at  $10  a month,  and  made 
a trip  to  New  Orleans.  On  his  return  he  ac- 
companied the  family  to  Illinois,  driving  the 
cattle  on  the  journey,  and  on  reaching  their 
destination  helped  theni  to  build  a cabin  and 
split  rails  to  enclose  the  farm.  He  was  now  in 
succession  a flat-boat  hand,  clerk,  captain  of  a 
company  of  volunteers  in  the  Black  Hawk 
War,  country  store-keeper,  ])ostmaster,  and 
surveyor,  yet  he  managed  to  get  a knowledge 
of  law  by  borrowing  hooks  at  an  office,  before 
it  closed  at  night,  and  returning  them  at  its 
opening  in  the  morning.  On  being  admitted 
to  the  bar,  he  rapidly  rose  to  distinction.  At 
twenty-five  he  was  sent  to  the  Legislature,  and 
was  thrice  re-elected.  Turning  his  attention 
to  politics,  he  soon  became  a leader.  He  was 
sent  to  Congress;  he  canvassed  the  State,  har- 
anguing the  people  daily  on  great  national 
questions;  and,  in  1858,  he  was  a candidate  for 
Senator,  a second  time,  against  Stci)hen  A. 
Douglass.  The  two  rivals  stumped  the  State 
together.  The  debate,  unrivalled  for  its 
statesmanship,  logic  and  wit,  won  for  Lincoln 
a national  reputation.  He  lost  the  election  in 
the  Legislature,  as  his  party  was  in  the  minor- 
ity. After  his  accession  to  the  Presidency,  his 
history,  like  Washington’s,  is  identified  with 
that  of  his  country.  He  was  a tall,  ungainly 
man,  little  versed  in  the  refinements  of  soci- 
ety, but  gifted  by  nature  with  great  commoa

SKETCHES  OF  THE  PRESIDENTS. 


sense,  and  everywhere  known  as  “Honest 
Abe.”  Kind,  earnest,  sympathetic,  faithful, 
democratic,  he  was  only  anxious  to  serve  his 
country.  His  wan,  fatigued  face,  and  his  bent 
form,  told  of  the  cares  he  bore  and  the  grief 
he  felt. 


( SEVENTEENTH  PRESIDENT. ) 


Andrew  was  born  near  Ra- 

leigh, North  Carolina,  December  29,  1808.  He 
was  Yice-Fresident  when  Abraham  Lincoln 
was  assasinated,  and  by  his  death  Mr.  John- 
son became  the  constitutional  President  of  the 
United  States.  He  died  in  1875,  while  serving 
as  United  States  Senator  fuom  Tennessee. 

When  only  ten  years  of  age,  Mr.  Johnson 
was  bound  apprentice  to  a tailor  of  Raleigh. 
Never  having  been  a day  at  school  in  his  life, 
he  yet  determined  to  secure  an  education. 
From  a fellow-workman  he  learned  the  alpha- 
bet, and  from  a friend  something  of  spelling. 
Thenceforth,  after  working  ten  or  twelve  hours 
per  day  at  his  trade,  he  spent  two  or  three  ev- 
ery night  in  study.  In  1820,  he  went  West  to 
seek  his  fortune,  with  true  filial  affection  car- 
rying with  him  his  mother,  who  was  dependent 
on  his  labor  for  support.  After  his  marriage 
at  Greenville,  Tenn,  he  continued  his  studies 
under  the  instruction  of  his  wife,  pursuing  his 
trade  as  before  by  day.  His  political  life  com- 
menced with  his  election  as  alderman.  He 
was  successively  chosen  mayor,  member  of  the 
Legislature,  Presidential  elector,  State  Sen- 
ator, twice  Governor,  and  for  fifteen  years 
United  States  Senator.  Remaining  true  to  the 
Union  when  his  State  seceded,  his  loyalty  at- 
tracted general  attention.  A life-time  Demo- 
crat, he  was  elected  on  the  Republican  ticket 
as  Vice-President,  in  reward  for  his  faithful- 
ness. Coming  into  office  with  a Republican 
Congress,  it  is  not  strange  that  his  way  was 
hedged  with  difficulties,  and  his  Presidential 
career  a most  unhappy  one.

(eighteenth  president,  two  terms.) 

Ulysses  S.  CJraiit  was  born  at  Point 
Pleasant,  Clermont  county,  Ohio,  April  27, 
1822.  He  was  very  unwilling  to  follow  his 
father’s  trade,  which  was  that  of  a tanner, 
and,  at  seventeen,  an  appointment  was  secured 
for  him  at  West  Point.  Ilis  name  having  been 
wrongly  registered,  Grant  vainly  attempted  to 
set  the  matter  right,  but  finally  accepted  his 
“ manifest  destiny,”  assumed  the  change  thus 
forced  upon  him,  and  thenceforth  signed  him- 
self “ Ulysses  Simpson,”  the  latter  being  his 
mother’s  family  name.  Two  years  after  com- 
pleting his  four  years’  course  as  cadet,  the  Mex- 
ican war  broke  out,  in  which  Grant  conducted 
himself  with  great  gallantry,  receiving  espe- 
cial mention  and  promotion.  In  1847  he  was 
made  first-lieutenant,  captain  in  1853,  and  in 
1854  he  resigned  his  commission,  and  entered 
the  leather  and  saddlery  business  at  Galena, 
Illinois,  in  1859,  where  he  remained  until  the 
opening  of  the  war  in  1861,  when  he  immedi- 
ately offered  his  services  in  behalf  of  the 
Union.  His  modesty  and  diffidence  delayed 
their  acceptance,  and  Governor  Y'ates,  of  Illi- 
nois, was  the  first  to  avail  himself  of  them. 
Grant  finally  took  the  field  as  Colonel  of  the 
Twenty-first  Regiment  Illinois  Volunteers.  In 
February,  1862,  he  was  made  a major-general, 
and  commanded  the  armies  of  the  .Soutn-west. 
On  the  12th  of  March,  1864,  he  was  made  lieu- 
tenant-general and  put  in  command  of  all  the 
armies,  and  took  personal  direction  of  the  mil- 
itary operations  in  Virginia,  and,  on  the  9th  of 
April,  1865,  General  Lee  surrendered  the  Con- 
federate armies  to  him,  at  Appomattox  Court 
House,  and  hostilities  were  ended. 

He  was  nominated  and  elected  by  the  Repub- 
licans President  of  the  United  States  in  1868, 
.and  re-elected  by  the  same  i)arty  in  1872,  and 
is  now  the  present  incumbent.  His  term  ex- 
pires in  1877.

SKETCHES  OF  THE  PEESIDENTS. 


[nineteenth  PKESIDENT.] 
Rutherford  B.  Hayes  was  born 
at  Delaware,  Ohio,  October  4,  1822.  He 
graduated  at  Kenyon  College,  Ohio,  He 
commenced  the  practice  of  law  in  Cincin- 
nati in  his  thirty-fourth  year,  when  he  re- 
ceived his  first  official  position  as  City  So- 
licitor, which  he  held  till  the  war  broke 
out  in  1861.  Very  near  its  opening  he  en- 
listed in  the  Twenty-third  Ohio  volunteers, 
and  served  with  the  regiment  till  he  re- 
ceived the  command  of  a brigade  in  1864. 
His  first  appointment  was  as  Major,  his 
first  promotion  came  within  less  than  a 
year,  and  in  September  of  1862  he  held  a 
commission  as  Lieutenant-Colonel,  and 
was  in  command  of  his  regiment,  which 
he  led  into  the  battle  of  South  Mountain. 
During  the  battles  of  the  Army  of  Potomac, 
Colonel  Hayes  received  a severe  wound  in 
the  arm,  but  remained  with  his  regiment 
to  the  last,  and  was  the  first  officer  whose 
command  established  a position  at  South 
Mountain.  Two  years  later  he  had  be- 
come Brigadier-General  Hayes,  and  was 
elected  to  Congress  from  the  second  Ohio 
district  by  the  Republicans.  In  the  Fall  of 
1866,  Mr.  Hayes  was  nominated  and  elect- 
ed to  Congress  a second  time  by  the  Re- 
publicans, but  Congress  had  held  but  one 
session  when  he  was  nominated  and  elect- 
ed Governor  of  Ohio  by  the  same  party. 
During  his  political  career,  he  was  three 
times  elected  Governor  of  Ohio,  and  twice 
a Member  of  Congress,  A reference  to  the 
“Important  Events”  in  1876-77,  will  be 
found  the  particulars  of  his  election  to  fhe 
Presidency  of  the  United  States  in  1877. 
Mr.  Hayes  took  the  oath  of  office  on  Sat- 
urday, the  3d  of  March,  and  was  inaugu- 
rated President  of  the  United  States  Mon- 
day, the  5th  of  March.  Pending  the  time  of 
the  election  and  before  the  meeiing  of  the 
electoral  commission,  the  country  was 
greatly  agitated  and  seemed  threatened 
with  civil  war,  but  immediately  after  his 
inauguration  quiet  and  confidence  was  re- 
stored, and  peace  reigned  throughout  the 
United  States.

The  Washington  £lm,  Cambridge,  Massachnsetts.— Not  far  from  the  college  grounds 
stands  one  of  the  famous  trees  of  the  country — the  Washington  Elm — the  only  known  survivor  of  the 
ancient  forest  that  originally  covered  this  part  of  Cambridge.  It  was  under  this  tree  that  General  George 
Washington  took  command  of  the  Continental  army,  on  the  morning  of  July  3,  1775.  A neat  fence  sur- 
rounds this  giant  of  the  ancient  forests,  and  an  inscription  commemorates  the  important  event,  which  was 
the  most  interesting  in  its  centuries  of  existence.

‘‘that  Colonel  Washington,  I am  told,  is  illit- 
erate, and  can  not  write  his  own  name.”  “Ah!

know  better,  for  you  bear  evidence  that  he  can 
make  Ms  mark.”  At  another  time  he  ex- 
pressed a desire  to  see  Colonel  Washington.

looked  behind  at  the  Cowpens,  you  might  have 
had  that  pleasure.”

FICXinOES  AAXIES 

OF 

STATES,  CITIES,  NOTED 
PERSONS,  &c. 

Albany  Regency  .—A.  name  popularly  given 
in  the  United  States  to  a junto  of  astute  Dem- 
ocratic politicians,  having  their  headquarters 
at  Albany,  N.  Y.,  who  controlled  the  action  of 
the  Democratic  party  for  many  years,  and  who 
had  great  weight  in  national  politics.  The  ef- 
fort to  elect  Wm.  H.  Crawford  President,  in- 
stead of  John  Quincy  Adams,  was  their  first 
great  struggle. 

Badger  State. — A name  given  to  Wisconsin. 

Bay  State. — A popular  name  of  Massachu- 
setts, which,  previous  to  the  adoption  of  the 
Federal  Constitution,  was  called  the  Colony  of 
Massachusetts. 

Bayou  State.- — A name  sometimes  given  to 
the  State  of  Mississippi,  which  abounds  in 
bayous  or  creeks. 

Bear  State. — A name  by  which  the  State  of 
Arkansas  is  sometimes  designated  on  account 
of  the  number  of  bears  that  infest  its  forests. 

Battle  of  the  Kegs. — The  subject  and  title 
of  a mock  heroic  poem,  by  Francis  Hopkinson. 
This  ballad,  very  famous  in  Revolutionary 
times,  was  occasioned  by  the  following  inci- 
dent : Certain  machines  in  the  form  of  kegs, 
charged  with  gun  powder,  were  sent  down  the 
river  to  annoy  the  British  shipping  then  at 
Philadelphia.  The  danger  of  these  machines 
being  discovered,  the  British  manned  the 
wharves  and  shipping,  and  discharged  their 
small  arms  and  cannons  at  everything  they 
saw  floating  on  the  river  during  the  ebb  tide. 

Blue  Hen,  The. — A cant  or  popular  name  for 
the  State  of  Delaware.  This  soubriquet  is 
said  to  have  had  its  origin  in  a certain  Captain 
Caldwell’s  fondness  for  the  amusement  of  cock- 
fighting.  Caldwell  was  an  officer  in  the  1st 
Delaware  regiment  in  the  war  of  the  Revolu- 
tion, and  was  greatly  distinguished  for  his  dar- 
ing and  bravey.  He  was  exceedingly  popular 
in  the  regiment,  and  its  high  state  of  disci- 
pline was  generally  conceded  to  be  due  to  his 
exertions;  so  that  when  officers  were  sent  on 
recruiting  service  to  fill  vacancies  occasioned 
by  death  or  otherwise,  it  was  a saying  that  they 
had  gone  home  for  more  of  Caldwell’s  game- 
cocks; but  as  Caldwell  insisted  that  no  cock 
could  be  truly  game  unless  the  mother  was  a 
Blue  hen,  the  expression  Blue  Hen’s  chickens 
was  substituted  for  game-cocks. 

Bluff  City. — A descriptive  name  applied  to 
the  city  of  Hannibal,  Mo. 

Boston  Massacre. — A name  popularly  given 
to  a disturbance  which  occurred  in  the  streets 
of  Boston,  on  the  evening  of  March  5th,  1770, 
when  a sergeant’s  guard  belonging  to  the  Brit- 
ish garrison  fired  upon  a crowd  of  people  (who 
were  surrounding  them,  and  pelting  them  with 
snow-balls)  and  killed  three  men,  besides 
wounding  several  others.  The  leader  of  the 
town-people  was  a black  man,  named  Cris})us 
Attucks. 

Boston,  Tea  Party. — A name  given  to  the 
famous  assemblage  of  citizens  in  Boston,  De- 
cember 16,  1773,  who  met  to  carry  out  the  non- 
importation resolves  of  the  colony,  and  who, 
disguised  as  Indians,  went  on  board  three

Brother  Jonathan. — A sportive  collective 
name  for  the  people  of  the  United  States,  orig- 
inating as  follows:  When  General  Washing- 
ton, after  being  appointed  commander  of  the 
army,  went  to  Massachusetts  to  organize  it  and 
make  preparations  for  the  defense  of  the  coun- 
try, he  found  a great  want  of  ammunition  and 
other  means  necessary  to  meet  the  powerful 
foe  he  had  to  contend  with,  and  great  diffi- 
culty in  obtaining  them.  If  attacked  in  such 
conditions,  the  cause  at  once  might  be  hope- 
less. On  one  occasion,  at  that  anxious  period, 
a consultation  of  the  ofiicers  and  others  was 
had,  when  it  seemed  that  no  way  could  be  de- 
vised to  make  such  preparation  as  was  neces- 
sary. His  Excellency  Jonathan  Trumbull,  the 
elder,  was  then  Goveanor  of  Connecticut,  and, 
as  Washington  placed  the  greatest  reliance  on 
his  judgment  and  aid,  he  remarked,  “We  must 
consult  Brother  Jonathan  on  the  subject.”  He 
did  so,  and  the  Governor  was  successful  in 
supplying  many  of  the  wants  of  the  army. 
The  origin  of  the  expression  being  soon  lost 
sight  of,  the  name  Brother  Jonathan  came  to 
be  regarded  as  the  national  sobriquet.

FICTITIOUS  NAMES,  ETC. 


Garden  of  the  West.—K  name  usually  ^iven 
to  Kansas,  but  sometimes  applied  to  Illinois 
and  others  of  the  Western  States,  which  are 
all  noted  for  their  productiveness. 

Garden  of  the  World. — A name  frequently 
given  to  the  vast  country  comprising  more  than 
1,200,000  square  miles  which  is  drained  by  the 
Mississippi  river  and  its  tributaries — a region 
of  almost  unexampled  fertility. 

Gate  City. — Keokuk,  Iowa — popularly  so- 
called.  It  is  situated  at  the  foot  of  the  lower 
rapids  of  the  Mississippi  river  (which  extends 
twelve  miles  with  a fall  of  twenty-four  feet), 
and  is  the  natural  head  of  navigation.  A por- 
tion of  the  city  is  built  on  a bluff  one  hundred 
and  fifty  feet  high. 

Gotham. — A popular  name  of  the  City  of 
New  York,  first  given  to  it  in ‘‘ Salmagundi  ” 
(a  humorous  work  by  Washington  Irving,  and 
William  Irving,  and  James  K.  Paulding),  be- 
cause the  inhabitants  were  such  wiseacres. 

Granite  State. — A popular  name  for  the 
State  of  New  Hampshire,  the  mountainous 
portions  of  which  are  largely  composed  of 
granite. 

Green  Mountain  State. — A popular  name  of 
Vermont,  the  Green  Mountains  being  the  prin- 
cipal mountain  range  in  the  State. 

Grundy,  Mrs. — A person  frequently  referred 
to  in  Morton’s  comedy  “ Speed  the  Plow,”  but 
not  introduced  as  one  of  the  dramatis  personae.’. 
The  solicitude  of  Dame  Ashfield,  in  this  play, 
as  to  what\will  Mrs.  Grundy  say?  has  given 
the  latter  great  celebrity,  the  interrogatory 
having  acquired  a proverbial  currency. 

Hamilton,  Gail. — A pseudonym  adopted  by 
Miss  Mary  Abigail  Dodge,  of  Hamilton,  Mass., 
a popular  American  writer  of  the  present  day. 

Jlawtceye  State. — The  State  of  Iowa;  said  to 
be  so  named  after  an  Indian  chief,  who  was 
once  a terror  to  voyagers  to  its  borders. 

Jloosier  State. — The  State  of  Indiana,  the 
inhabitants  of  which  are  often  called  Hoosiers.

West. 

Huh  of  the  Universe. — A burlesque  and  pop- 
ular designation  of  Boston,  Mass.,  originating

guished for  its  numerous  and  immense  iron

Ketch,  Jack. — A hangman  or  executioner; 
so  called  in  England,  from  one  John  Ketch,  a 
wretch  who  lived  in  the  time  of  James  II.,  and 
made  himself  universally  odious  by  the  butch- 
ery of  many  brave  and  noble  victims,  particu- 
larly those  sentenced  to  death  by  the  infamous 
Jeffreys  during  the  “Bloody  Assizes.”  The 
name  is  thought  by  some  to  be  derived  from 
Richard  Jacquett,  who  held  the  manor  of  Ty- 
burn, near  London,  where  criminals  were  for- 
merly executed. 

Keystone  State. — The  State  of  Pennsyl- 
vania; so  called  from  its  having  been  the  central 
State  of  the  Union  at  the  time  of  the  forma- 
tion of  the  Constitution.  If  the  names  of  the 
thirteen  original  States  are  arranged  in  the

FICTITIOUS  NAMES,  ETC. 


States  of  America.  The  supremacy  of  cotton 
seems  to  have  been  first  asserted  by  the  Hon. 
James  H.  Hammond,  of  South  Carolina,  in  a 
speech  delivered  by  him  in  the  Senate  of  the 
United  States,  on  the  4th  of  March,  1858. 

Kitchen  Cabinet. — A name  sportively  given, 
in  the  United  States,  to  the  Hon.  Francis  P. 
Blair  and  the  Hon.  Amos  Kendall,  by  the  op- 
ponents of  President  Jackson’s  administration. 
Blair  was  the  editor  of  The  Globe,  the  organ  of 
the  President,  and  Kendall  was  one  of  the 
principal  contributors  to  the  paper.  As  it  was 
necessary  for  Jackson  to  consult  frequentl}^ 
with  those  gentlemen,  and  as,  to  avoid  obser- 
vation, they  were  accustomed,  when  they  called 
upon  him,  to  go  in  by  a back  door,  the  Whig 
party  styled  them,  in  derision,  the  ‘‘Kitchen 
Cabinet,”  alleging  that  it  was  by  their  advice 
that  the  President  removed  so  many  Whigs 
from  office  and  put  Democrats  in  their 
place.

ted, in  allusion  to  the  moral  character  of  its  in-

Learned  Blacksmith. — An  epithet  sometimes 
applied  to  Elihn  Burritt  (born  1811),  who  be- 
gan life  as  a blacksmith,  and  afterward  distin- 
guished himself  as  a linguist. 

Lion  of  the  Sea.— A.  name  formerly  given  to 
the  Cape  of  Good  Hope. 

Little  A popular  sobriquet  conferred 

upon  the  Hon.  Stephen  A.  Douglass,  a dis- 
tinguished American  statesman  (born  1813, 
died  1861),  in  allusion  to  the  disparity  between 
his  physical  and  intellectual  proportions. 

Little  Magician. — A sobriquet  conferred 
upon  the  Hon.  Martin  Van  Buren,  President 
of  the  United  States  from  1837  to  1841,  in  al- 
lusion to  his  supposed  political  sagacity  and 
talent. 

Lone  Star  State.— The  State  of  Texas,  so- 
called  from  the  device  on  its  coat  of  arms. 

Lumber  State. — The  State  of  Maine,  the  in- 
habitants of  which  are  largely  engaged  in  the 
business  of  cutting  and  rafting  lumber,  or  of 
converting  it  into  boards,  shingles,  scantling, 
and  the  like. 

Mad  Anthony. — A sobriquet  of  Maj.  Gen. 
Anthony  Wayne,  distinguished  for  his  military 
skill  and  impetuous  bravery  in  the  war  of  the 
Revolution. 

Mason  and  Dixon’s  Line.— A name  given  to 
the  southern  boundary  of  the  free  State  of 
Pennsylvania,  which  formerly  se])arated  it  ! 
from  the  slave  States  of  Maryland  and  Virgi- 
nia. It  lies  in  latitude  49®  43'  26.3'  ',  and  was 
run,  with  the  exception  of  about  twenty-two 
miles,  by  Charles  Mason  and  Jeremiah  Dixon, 
two  English  mathematicians  and  surveyors, 
between  Xov.  15,  1763,  and  Dec.  26,  1767.  Dur- 
ing the  exciting  debates  in  Congress  in  1820,  ) 
on  the  question  of  excluding  slavery  from  the  | 
State  of  Missouri,  the  eccentric  John  Randolph, 
of  Roanoke,  made  great  use  of  the  phrase, 
which  was  caught  up  and  re-echoed  by 
every  newspaper  in  the  land,  and  thus 
gained  a celebrity  which  it  still  retains.

Mormons. — The  last  of  a pretended  line  of 
Hebrew  prophets,  existing  among  a race  of 
Israelites,  principally  the  descendants  of  Jos- 
eph, who  are  fabled  to  have  emigrated  fi'om 
Jerusalem  to  America  about  six  hundred  years 
before  Christ.  This  imaginary  pro])het  is  said

mon Spalding,  (born  1761  and  died  1816)  an  in- 
veterate scribbler,  who  had  in  early  life  been  a 
clergyman.  The  work  fell  into  the  hands  of 
Joseph  Smith,  who  claimed  it  as  a direct  reve-

Old  Bullion. — A sobriquet  conferred  on 
Colonel  Thomas  H.  Benton  ( 1782-1862 ),  a dis-

cavern  for  refuge,  and  having  been  pursued, 
discovered,  and  walled  in  for  a cruel  death, 
Tvere  made  to  fall  asleep,  and  in  that  state 
were  miraculously  kept  for  almost  tw^o  centu- 
ries. Their  names  are  traditionally  said  to 
have  been,  Maximican,  Malchus,  Martinian, 
Denis,  John,  Scraptou,  and  Constantine.  The 
Church  has  consecrated  the  27th  of  June  to 
their  memory.  The  Koran  relates  the  tale  of 
the  seven  sleepers,  deriving  it  probably  from 
the  same  source  as  the  Christian  legend,  and 
declares  that  out  of  respect  for  them  the  sun 
altered  his  course  twice  a day  that  he  might 
shine  into  the  cavern. 

Seven  Wonders  of  the  Woidd,  The. — A name 
given  to  seven  very  remarkable  objects  of  the 
ancient  world, which  have  been  variously  enu- 
merated. The  following  classification  is  one 
of  the  most  generally  received  : 1.  The  Pyra- 

mids of  Egypt;  2.  The  Pharos  of  Alexander;  3. 
The  walls  and  hanging  gardens  of  Babylon;  4. 
The  Temple  of  Diana  at  Ephesus:  5.  The  statue 
of  the  Olympian  Jupiter;  6.  The  Mausoleum  of 
Artemisia;  7.  The  Colossus  of  Rhodes. 

Skinners. — A name  assumed  by  a predatory 
band  in  the  revolutionary  war,  who,  professing 
allegiance  to  the  American  cause,  but  influ- 
enced by  a desire  to  plunder,  roamed  over  the 
“neutral  ground,”  lying  bctw'cen  the  hostile 
armies,  robbing  those  who  refused  to  take  the 
oath  of  fidelity. 

Slick,  Sam. — The  title  and  hero  of  various 
humorous  narratives,  illustrat  ing  and  exagger- 
ating the  peculiarities  of  the  Yankee  character 
and  dialect,  written  by  Judge  Thomas  C.  Ilali- 
burton,  of  Nova  Scotia.  Sam  Slick  is  repre- 
sented as  a Yankee  clockmaker  and  peddler, 
full  of  quaint  drollery,  unsophisticated  wit, 
knowledge  of  human  nature,  and  aptitude  in 
the  use  of  what  he  calls  “soft  sawder.” 

Smoky  City. — A name  sometimes  given  to 
Pittsburgh,  Pa.,  an  important  manufacturing 
city.  The  use  of  bituminous  coal  occasions 
dense  volumes  of  smoke  to  fill  the  air  in  and 
around  the  place,  soiling  the  garments  of  pass- 
engers, and  giving  the  buildings  a dark  and 
sooty  appearance. 

Stonewall  Jackson. — A sobriquet  given,  dur- 
ing the  American  civil  war,  to  Thomas  Jona- 
than Jackson  (born  1824,  died  1863),  a general 
in  the  service  of  the  Confederate  States.  This 
famous  appellation  had  its  origin  in  an  expres- 
sion used  by  the  Confederate  General  Bee,  on 
trying  to  rally  his  men  at  the  battle  of  Bull 
Run,  July  21,  1862 — -“There  is  Jackson  stand- 
ing like  a stone  wall.”  From  that  day  he  was 
known  as  Jackson,  and  hiscommand 

as  the  Stonewall  Brigade. 

Sucker  State. — A cant  name  given  in  Ameri- 
ca to  the  State  of  Illinois,  the  inhabitants  of 
w'hich  are  very  generally  called  Suckers 
throughout  the  west.  The  oi'igin  of  this  fei'm 
is  said  to  be  as  follows  : The  western  prairies 
are  in  many  places  full  of  the  holes  made  by 
the  craw'fish  ( a fresh-w'ater  shell-fish,  similar 
in  form  to  the  lobster),  wdiich  descend  to  the 
w^ater  beneath.  In  early  times,  when  tiavel- 
ers  wended  their  w'ay  over  these  immense 
plains,  they  very  prudently  ])rovided -them- 
selves with  a long  hollow  reed,  and  vvlicn 
thirsty  thrnst  it  into  these  natural  artesians, 
and  thus  easily  supplied  their  longings.  The 
crawfish  w^ell  generally  contains  pure  water, 
and  the  manner  in  which  the  traveler  drew 
forth  the  refreshing  element  gave  him  the 
name  of  Sucker.

FICTITIOUS  NAMES,  ETC. 


Swedish  Nujlitimjale. — A name  popularly 
given  to  Jenny  Lind  (Madame  Gold- 
schmidt, boi-n  1821),  a native  of  Stock- 
holm, and  the  most  celebrated  of  female  vocal- 
ists. 

Tammany , St. — The  name  of  an  Indian  Chief 
Avho,  in  the  United  States,  has  been  popularly 
canonized  as  a saint,  and  adopted  as  the  tute- 
lary genius  of  one  branch  of  the  Democratic 
party.  Tammany  was  of  the  Delaware  nation, 
and  lived  probably  in  the  middle  of  the  seven- 
teenth century.  lie  resided  in  the  country 
which  is  now  Delawaoe  until  he  was  of  age, 
when  he  moved  beyond  the  Alleghanies,  and 
settled  on  the  banks  of  the  Ohio.  He  became 
chief  sachem  of  his  tribe,  and  being  always  a 
friend  of  the  whites,  often  restrained  his  war- 
riors from  deeds  of  violence.  His  rule  was  al- 
ways discreet,  and  he  endeavored  to  induce  his 
followers  to  cultivate  agriculture  and  the  arts 
of  peace  rather  than  those  of  war.  When  he 
became  old  he  called  a council  to  have  a suc- 
cessor appointed,  after  which  the  residue  of 
his  life  was  spent  in  retirement,  and  tradition 
relates  that  ‘‘young  and  old  repaired  to  his 
vdgwam  to  hear  him  discourse  wisdom.”  His 
great  motto  was,  “Unite  in  peace  for  happi- 
ness, in  war  for  defense.”  When  and  by  whom 
he  was  first  styled  saint,  or  by  what  whim  he 
was  chosen  to  be  the  patron  of  Democracy, 
does  not  appear. 

Tippecanoe. — A sobriquet  conferred  upon 
Gen.  William  H.  Harrison,  afterward  President 
of  the  United  States,  during  the  political  can- 
vass which  preceded  his  election,  on  account  of 
the  victory  gained  by  him  over  the  Indians  in 
the  battle\vhich  took  place  on  the  6th  of  No- 
vember, 1811,  at  the  junction  of  the  Tippecanoe 
and  Wabash  rivers. 

Topsy. — A young  slave  girl  in  Mrs.  Stowe’s 
novel,  “ Uncle  Tom’s  Cabin,”  who  is  made  to 
illustrate  the  ignorance,  low  moral  develop- 
ment and  wild  humor  of  the  African  character, 
as  well  as  its  capacity  for  education. 

Turpentine  State. — A popular  name  for  the 
State  of  North  Carolina,  which  produces  and 
exports  large  quantities  of  turpentine. 

Uncle  Sam.-  -A  cant  or  vulgar  name  of  the 
United  States  Government.  Immediately  af- 
ter the  last  declaration  of  war  with  England, 
Elbert  Anderson,  of  New  York,  then  a con- 
tractor, visited  Troy,  on  the  Hudson,  where 
was  concentrated  and  where  he  purchased  a 
large  contract  of  provisions,  beef,  pork,  etc. 

The  inspectors  of  these  articles,  at  the  place, 
were  Messrs.  Ebenezer  and  Samuel  Wilson. 
The  latter  gentleman  ( invariably  known  as 
“Uncle  Sam”)  generally  superintended  in 
person  a large  number  of  workmen,  who,  on 
this  occasion,  were  employed  in  overhauling 
the  provisions  purchased  by  the  contractors  of 
the  army.  The  casks  were  marked  E.  A. — U. 
S.  This  work  fell  to  the  lot  of  a facetious  fel- 
low in  the  employ  of  the  Messrs.  Wilson,  who, 
on  being  asked  by  some  of  his  fellow-workmen 
the  meaning  of  the  mark  (for  the  letters  U.  S. 
for  United  States  were  then  almost  entirely 
new  to  them),  said  he  did  not  know,  unless  it 
meant  Elbert  Anderson  and  “Uncle  Sam,”  al- 
luding exclusively  to  the  said  “ Uncle  Sam  ” 
Wilson.  The  joke  took  among  the  workmen, 
and  passed  currently;  and  “ Uncle  Sam  ” him- 
self being  present,  was  occasionally  rallied  by 
them  on  the  increasing  extent  of  his  posses- 
sions. Many  of  these  workmen,  being  of  a 
character  denominated  “ fond  of  powder,”

were  found,  shortly  after,  following  the  re- 
cruiting drum,  and  pushing  toward  the  fron- 
tier lines,  for  the  double  purpose  of  meeting 
the  enemy  and  of  eating  the  provisions  they 
had  lately  labored  to  put  in  good  order.  Their 
old  jokes  accompanied  them,  and  before  the 
first  campaign  ended,  this  identical  one  first 
appeared  in  print;  it  gained  favor  rapidly  till  it 
penetrated,  and  was  recognized  in  every  part  of 
the  country,  and  Avill,  no  doubt,  continue  so 
while  the  United  States  remain  a nation. 

Underground  liailroad,  The. — A popular 
embodiment  of  the  various  ways  in  which  fugi- 
tive slaves  from  the  Southern  States  were  as- 
sisted in  escaping  to  the  North,  or  to  Canada; 

’ often  humorously  abbreviated  U.  G.  R.  R. 

Wagoner  Boy,  The — A sobriquet  of  the 
Hon.  Thomas  Corwin  (born  1794),  a distin- 
guished American  Statesman.  While  yet  a 
lad,  Harrison  and  his  army  were  on  the  North- 
ern frontier,  almost  destitute  of  provisions, 
and  a demand  was  made  on  the  patriotism  of 
the  people  to  furnish  the  necessary  subsist- 
ence. The  elder  Corwin  loaded  a wagon  with 
supplies,  which  was  delivered  by  his  son,  who 
remained  with  the  army  during  the  rest  of  the 
campaign,  and  who  is  said  to  have  proved  him- 
self “ a good  whip  and  an  excellent  reins- 
man.” 

Western  Reserve,  The. — A name  popularly 
given  to  a region  of  country  reserved  by  the 
State  of  Connecticut  at  the  time  of  the  cession 
of  the  Northwest  Territory  to  the  United 
States.  Dispute  arose,  after  the  war  of  the 
Revolution,  between  several  of  the  States  re- 
specting the  right  of  soil  in  their  territory 
which  were  only  allayed  by  the  cession  of  the 
whole  to  the  United  States,  Connecticut  reserv- 
ing a tract  of  3,666,921  acres  near  Lake  Erie. 
In  1800,  jurisdiction  over  this  tract  was  relin- 
quished to  the  Federal  Government,  the  State 
reserving  the  right  to  the  soil  to  settlers,  while 
the  Indian  titles  to  the  rest  of  the  soil  were 
bought  up  by  the  general  government.  In 
1799,  the  North-western  Territory,  over  which 
Congress  had  exercised  jurisdiction  since  1787, 
was  admitted  to  a second  grade  of  territorial 
government.  Shortly  after,  Ohio  was  detached 
from  it,  and  erected  into  an  independent  terri- 
tory, and  in  1803  it  was  received  as  a State 
into  the  Union. 

White  House,  The. — In  the  United  States  a 
name  properly  given  to  the  executive  or 
presidential  mansion  at  Washington, 
which  is  a large  building  of  freestone,  painted 
white. 

Wicked  Bihle. — A name  given  to  an  edition 
of  the  Bible  published  in  1632  by  Baker  & Lu- 
cas, because  the  word  not  was  omitted  in  the 
seventh  commandment.  The  printers  were 
called  before  the  High  Commission,  fined 
heavily,  and  the  whole  impression  destroyed. 

Wolverine  State,  The. — The  State  of  Michi- 
gan; popularly  so  called  for  its  abounding  with 
wolverines. 

Yellow  Jack. — Among  sailors  a common 
personification  of  the  yellow  fever.  Although 
used  as  a proper  name,  it  is  jirobable  that  the 
original  meaning  of  the  appellation  was  noth- 
ing more  than  yellow  flag-,  a flag  being  termed 
jack  by  seamen,  and  yellow  being  the  color  of 
that  customarily  displayed  from  lazarettos,  or 
naval  hospitals,  and  from  vessels  in  quaran- 
tine. 

Young  America. — A popular  collective  name 
for  American  youth,  or  a personification  of 
their  supposed  characteristics.

Eureka  Platform  Spring  Wagon 


Patented  October  31, 1873. 

The  Lightest,  Cheapest  and  Most  Desirable  Tres- 
tle Made. 


Our  Improved  Trestles  for  Platform  Wagons  are 
made  from  the  best  (Rome)  refined  iron  and  select- 
ed second-growth  timber,  and  are  superior  to  any 
in  the  market.  The  combination  of  wood  and  iron 
renders  it  impossible  for  them  to  get  out  of  shape, 
and  the  iron  bars  standing  edgewise  combined  with 
the  wood,  while  adding  greatly  to  the  strength,  can- 
not cramp  or  twist,  causing  the  Trestle  to  8ettle,and 
having  a bridge  under  the  circle  can  raise  the  cen-  | 
tre,  making  it  an  impossibility  to  bend  when  load- 
ed. We  furnish  Trestle  complete,  with  two  Circles, 
Step  and  Spring  Hangers,  ready  for  use. 

Prices:  Single  Trestle,  warranted  to  carry  1,000 
pounds,  $7.00.  Orders  should  be  addressed  to

event  which  preceded  the  middle  or 
“ dark  ages.”  The  form  of  the  old 
Roman  Government  remained — the 
Senate,  the  Consuls,  etc. , but  Italy, 
ravaged  by  a succession  of  wars, 
plagues,  famines,  and  every  form  of 
public  tyranny  and  domestic  slavery, 
was  nearly  a desert.

The  Laurel  Hill  Cemetery, 

Ridge  Ave.,  and  Falls  of  the  Schuylkill. 

“ Laurel  Hill  ” is  tlie  oldest  suburban  Cemetery  in  the  United  States,  with  the  exception  of  Mt.  Auburn 
in  Boston.  Founded  in  1835  by  Nathan  Dunn,  Benjamin  W.  Richards,  John  J.  Smith,  and  Frederick 
Brown,  it  has  long  been  famous  among  the  places  of  interest  in  Philadelphia  for  the  natural  beauty  of  its 
site  and  scenery  (embellished  by  much  skill  and  labor),  the  magnificence  and  variety  of  its  monuments, 
and  the  names  of  the  distinguished  dead  who  lie  buried  within  its  walls.  Occupying  one  of 
the  most  exquisite  situations  in  the  neighborhood  of  Philadelphia,  on  the  high  and  wooded  bank  of 
the  Schuylkill  (adjoining  East,  and  opposite  West,  Fairmount  Park),  it  is  easily  reached  on  foot  as  well  as 
by  steamboat,  horse-car  and  carriage;  and,  although  now  far  within  the  limits  of  the  growing  city,  is  pe- 
culiarly and  perfectly  protected  from  encroachment  by  its  surroundings,  having  Ridge  Avenue  on  the 
East,  the  river  on  the  West,  and  the  Park  on  the  remaining  sides. 

A large  quantity  of  very  desirable  ground  is  to  be  had  at  reasonable  prices,  including  some  portions 
but  recently  prepared  for  burial  purposes,  and  now  (1876)  ofliered  for  sale  for  the  first  time.

WADSWORTH’S  PATENT  ELLIPTIC 


Watch  Case  Spring, 

Patented  March  2d,  1875,  by  C.  W.  Wads- 
worth, Peekskill,  N.  Y. 

Accomplished  at  Last  — the  Best  and 
Most  Serviceable  Spring  ever 
Introduced  in  the  Market. 

Each  holder  is  accurately  fitted  to  the  Case,  and 
in  a few  minutes  the  Spring  can  be  adjusted.  The 
Spring  works  evenly  from  end  to  end,  and  without 
strain  or  wear  to  the  most  delicate  Case. 

The  Spring  is  made  of  the 
Finest  Steel,  Drawn  and  Rolled  Hard, 
which  gives  it  SUFFICIENT  TEMPER,  and  is  so 
adjusted  to  the  holder  thkt  it 

Retains  its  Elasticity,  and  is  not  Liable  to  Break. 

THE  ELLll^IC  SPRING 

IS  SUPERIOR  TO  ALL  OTHERS,  because  it  can 
be  adjusted  to  the  Case  without  drilling  new  holes, 
as  is  frecpiently  done  with  the  old  Springs. 

The  Springs  are  numbered  1,  2,  3 and  4,  and  will 
fit  nearly  every  size  of  case  in  use.  They  are  as- 
sorted in  boxes  containing  one  dozen  Springs.

queen  dowager,  his  mother.

hands  Fedor,  the  reigning  czar

studying  the  Bible  and  himself. 
He  died  in  1690. 

1628.  The  discovery  of  the  circulation  of

logical and  pathological  specula- 
tion.

ous hero  of  his  time,  and  the  chief 
support  of  the  Protestant  religion 
in  Germany,  and  in  alliance  with 
Charles  I.  of  England,  was  foully 
killed  in  the  moment  of  victory. 

1633.  The  art  of  preserving  flowers  in  sand

at  the  word  of  the  Lord. 

1652.  First  war  between  the  English  and

City  Hall,  Loulivilte,  Ky. — This  building  at  present  covers  an  area  of  200 
feet  on  Sixth  street  and  100  feet  on  Jefferson,  but  it  is  designed  in  the  future  to  extend 
the  front  on  Jefferson  street  about  150  feet,  covering  the  space  now  occupied  by  the  Jail 
and  Engine  House,  and  thus  complete  the  principal  facade,  which  it  is  intended  shall 
front  on  Jefferson  street,  the  present  completed  portion  being  that  of  a pavilion  to 
the  entire  building.  As  it  is  now  occupied,  the  building  cost  about  $460,000.  This 
building  was  commenced  on  the  14th  day  of  August,  1870,  and  was  completed  and  oc- 
cupied in  the  early  part  of  1873;  its  architecture  is  that  of  the  Italian  Rennaissance.

IMPOETANT  EVENTS. 


A.  D. 

1656.  James  Naylor  personated  our  Sa- 
viour ; lie  was  convicted  of  blasphe- 
my, scourged,  and  his  tongue  bored 
through  with  a hot  iron  on  the  pil- 
lory by  sentence  of  the  House  of 
Commons  under  Cromwell’s  ad- 
ministration. 

The  plague  brought  from  Sardinia 
to  Naples,  being  introduced  by  a 
transport  with  soldiers  on  board, 
raged  with  such  violence  as  to  car- 
ry off  400,000  of  the  inhabitants  in 
six  months. 

1662.  Charles  II.  is  said  to  have  first  en- 

couraged the  appearance  of  women 
on  the  stage  of  England,  but  the 
queen  of  James  I.  had  previously 
performed  in  a theatre  at  court. 

An  earthquake  throughout  China 
buries  300,000  persons  in  Pekin 
alone. 

1663.  The  first  idea  of  a steam  engine  was 

suggested  by  the  Marquis  of  Wor- 
cester in  his  “Century  of  Inven- 
tions” as  “a  way  to  drive  up 
water  by  fire.” 

1665.  Memorable  plague  in  London  which 

carried  off  68,596  persons. 

1666.  Great  fire  in  London,  Sept.  2,  destroy- 

ing 89  churches,  including  the  Roy- 
al Exchange,  the  Custom  House, 
Sion  College,  and  many  other 
public  buildings,  besides  13,200 
houses,  laying  waste  400  streets. 
This  conflagration  continued  three 
days  and  nights,  and  was  at  last 
only  extinguished  by  the  blowing 
up  of  houses. 

Chain-shot  to  destroy  the  rigging  of 
an  enemy’s  ships  invented  by  the 
Dutch  admiral  DeWitt. 

1667.  The  method  of  preparing  phospho- 

rus from  bones  discovered  by 
Charles  William  Scheele,  an  emi- 
nent Swedish  Chemist. 

1669.  Candia  or  Crete  obtained  from  the 
Venetians  by  the  Turks  after  a 
siege  of  24  years,  during  which 
over  200,000  people  perished. 

1672.  White  slaves  were  sold  in  England 
to  be  transported  to  Virginia  ; aver- 
age price  for  five  year’s  service  $25, 
while  a negro  was  worth  $125. 

1674.  John  Milton,  one  of  the  chief  poets 
and  greatest  men  of  England  died, 
aged  66  years.  His  task  of  writ- 
ing two  “Defences  of  the  people  of 
England  ” totally  destroyed  his  al- 
ready impaired  vision.  He  after- 
wards fulfilled  the  prediction  ut- 
tered in  one  of  his  former  books, 
by  bringing  out  the  great  English 
epic  “ Paradise  Lost.” 

In  his  domestic  life  Milton  en- 
dured much  trouble.  Deserted  for 
a while  by  his  first  wife,  be  saw  no 
relief  but  in  divorce.  His  daugh-

California  State  Building,  Centennial  Exposition,  Pliiladelpliia,— The  build-

structed entirely  of  wood,  with  an  oval  roof  surmounted  with  a dome.  The  interior  of  the  building  is 
sealed  with  finished  lumber  from  California,  and  inlaid  with  fancy  colored  woods  from  the  same  State,  al- 
together making  it  present  a very  handsome  appearance  inside  as  well  as  out.

ed at  $70,000,  but  amounted  to  considerable  more  when  completed;  was  in  part  provid- 
ed for  by  a loan  and  in  part  by  contributions — among  which  was  the  generous  gift  of 
$20,000  by  Henry  D.  Bacon.  The  total  number  of  volumes  in  the  library  is  upward  of

The  Brilliant,  Self-Shining  Stove 


No  Brush.  No  Mixing. 

No  Water.  No  Labor. 

No  Bust.  No  Odor. 

Use  a damp  woolen  rag,  dip  in  the  box,  ap- 
ply to  the  stove,  then  rub  with  a dry  woolen 
cloth ; this  will  produce  the 

MOST  BRILLIANT  GLOSS.
